Donate

The Friends of the Ordinariate support the work and mission of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham by providing financial and practical assistance. We warmly invite all those who share in the Holy See’s vision of Christian unity and who wish to see the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham succeed to support us by making a financial donation. All are welcome to support the Friends of the Ordinariate, be they cradle Catholics, former members of the Church of England, or those who remain within the Anglican tradition but want the Ordinariate to flourish.

During the last 12 years the Friends of the Ordinariate have distributed grants in excess of £350,000.  The purposes include support for: seminarians; newly ordained priests; the Portal Magazine; further academic study by Ordinariate priests; Catholic student groups; the publication of Ordinariate liturgical texts; and the restoration of church buildings and organs.  The Friends have also assisted with the purchase of property by the Ordinariate e.g. the church in Torbay; and the purchase of statues, vestments etc. for Ordinariate groups.  We also publish the Friends of the Ordinariate Newsletter.  The Winter 2022 edition was number 17 in the series.

Online donations can be made by PayPal via the link below or use the QR code.

The Friends encourage supporters to set up regular Standing Orders so that we can plan for the future on the basis of a regular, predictable, income. That does not exclude, of course, the possibility of providing one-off donations, which are also most welcome.

All those who agree to set up a Standing Order of £50.00 or more per annum will receive copies of the Newsletter and will also be invited to Friends’ events. They will also be sent updates via email. Those who donate £500.00 or more will in addition be invited to special events and receptions with the Ordinary.

We pray that the work of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham will continue for many years to come and so we kindly ask that you remember the Friends of the Ordinariate when you come to write or update your will. Legacies offer financial stability to all charities and we are grateful to all those who have remembered us in their wills.
