The Ordinariate will, in the future, have parishes where it has groups of members. These will be 'personal' parishes and not 'territorial' like a diocesan parish.

In September 2010, the Holy Father was keen to stress that the Apostolic Constitution "should be seen as a prophetic gesture that can contribute positively to the developing relations between Anglicans and Catholics". 

Members of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham are Catholics of the Latin Rite, within the full communion of the Catholic Church. By civil law they are known, as all Catholics in England and Wales are known, as 'Roman Catholics'. However, their heritage and traditions mean that they are Catholics from the Anglican Tradition.
