The Ordinariate

in London

WELCOME! The Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham was established in 2011 by Pope Benedict XVI to allow Anglicans to enter into the full communion of the Catholic Church whilst retaining much of their heritage and traditions. It now has the full support and blessing of Pope Francis.



We exist to promote the unity of all Christians with the Apostolic See, and faithfully to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the rich treasures of our traditions. You are welcome - come and find out more.

MONSIGNOR NEWTON WRITES... I would like to welcome you to the official website of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham and invite you to find out more about the Ordinariate’s structure and purpose. Mgr Keith Newton, Ordinary of the Personal Ordinariate

of Our Lady of Walsingham
