A "personal ordinariate" is a canonical structure within the Catholic Church, established in accordance with the apostolic constitution "Anglicanorum coetibus" (https://w2.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/apost_constitutions/documents/hf_ben-xvi_apc_20091104_anglicanorum-coetibus.html) of November 4th, 2009. These ordinariates were established in order to enable "groups of Anglicans" to join the Catholic Church while still preserving elements of their liturgical and spiritual patrimony.

A personal ordinariate is juridically equivalent to a diocese. Three personal ordinariates currently exist - that of the Chair of St. Peter (for the United States and Canada), Our Lady of Walsingham (for England, Wales and Scotland), and Our Lady of the Southern Cross (for Australia and Japan).

The Divine Worship Form of the Mass (used by the Ordinariate) can be most easily characterized by its use of beautiful traditional, sacral, hieratic (“heightened”) English from the tradition of the King James Version of the Bible and the Book of Common Prayer.
