Anglican Use has two meanings. First, it refers to former congregations of the Anglican Communion who have joined the Catholic Church (Latin Rite in particular) while maintaining some of the features of Anglicanism. These parishes were formerly members of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America and were allowed to join the Catholic Church under the Pastoral Provision of 1980 issued by Pope John Paul II. Anglican Use parishes currently exist only in the United States. Many Anglican Use priests are former clergy of the Episcopal Church and most are married. Second, Anglican Use refers to the particular form of worship used by those churches, which can be found in the Book of Divine Worship. The liturgy can be used outside of Anglican Use parishes with the proper permission from the local Roman Catholic bishop.
