==History== ===Origins=== In 1977, some of those Anglicans and Episcopalians who desired union with the Catholic Church contacted individual Catholic bishops, the [[Apostolic Delegate]] (Archbishop [[Jean Jadot]]) and the [[Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith]] in Rome, to inquire about the possibility for married Anglican priests to be received into the Catholic Church and function as Catholic priests. After the United States [[United States Conference of Catholic Bishops|National Conference of Catholic Bishops]] and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith had reacted favorably to the proposals that had been put before them, a formal request for union was presented in Rome on 3 November 1979 for acceptance into the Catholic Church, for steps to be taken to eliminate any defects that might be found in their priestly orders, and that they be granted the oversight, direction, and governance of a Catholic bishop.<ref>{{citation|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5JBSw4m9azYC&q=Cavanaugh+Anglicans+and+the+Roman+Catholic+Church|first=Steve|last=Cavanaugh|title=Anglicans and Roman Catholics|publisher=Ignatius Press|year=2011|isbn=9781586174996|chapter=Appendix A}}</ref> ===Pastoral Provision=== {{Main|Pastoral Provision}} The decision of the Holy See was officially communicated in a letter of 22 July 1980 from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith to the president of the United States [[episcopal conference]], who published it on 20 August 1980. Though admittance of the Episcopalians in question to the Catholic Church was considered as reconciliation of individuals, the pastoral provision gave them a common group identity.<ref name="atonement">{{citation|url=http://www.atonementonline.com/resource001.html |title=Letter of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, I |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040604112002/http://www.atonementonline.com/resource001.html |archive-date=4 June 2004 }}</ref> After a period of being subject to the local Latin Church bishop, the bishop could set up personal parishes for them, with the use, within the group, of a form of liturgy that retained certain elements of the Anglican liturgy; and married Episcopalian priests could on a case-by-case basis be ordained as Catholic priests, but not as bishops.<ref>Letter, II</ref> In 1983, the first Anglican Use parish, Our Lady of the Atonement, was established in [[San Antonio, Texas]].

The first to be established was the [[Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham]] for England and Wales in January 2011, followed by the [[Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter]] for the United States in January 2012 and the [[Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross]] for Australia in June 2012.
