300 Anglicans defect to Rome after row over women priests - National News, Frontpage - Independent.ie: "By John Cooney Religion Correspondent Thursday October 25 2007 UP to 300 Irish Anglicans could soon be joining the Roman Catholic Church to the traditional hymn tune 'Faith of Our Fathers'. A report in today's 'Irish Catholic' newspaper claims that three Church of Ireland parishes are Romeward-bound, and may soon be received by Pope Benedict into full communion with the Catholic Church. This change of denominational allegiance is part of a long-standing doctrinal feud over the ordination of women."

Our city has a Roman Catholic parish that was founded by former Episcopalians(anglicans)in the 1980's and uses the Anglican use liturgy. Father Phillips has a blog which you may find interesting.

This also happened in Scranton, PA. An anglican pastor, Eric Bergman, and many from his former congregation have recently joined the RCC. Excellent news!
