LOL. Thanks a lot SWTX. I had a feeling I would have some serious issues getting a copy of the BDW. It is a very specialized book used only by a few groups, none of which are anywhere near me. Also I don't know if they are going to be reprinted now that I know about the changes to the Roman Missal. The issue is made fuzzier by the fact that the Anglican Use and Ordinates are pretty unique in the Latin rite and I have no idea what they are considered. It's not like the Eastern Catholic Churches which are autonomous. Maybe they will allow it to continue as a separate rite like the Ambrosian Rite with it's own translations. Who knows.

It's funny my Rector was told when elected in no uncertain terms that there was to be absolutly no use of the new form of the Lord's Prayer. This was especially amusing when I heard about it because she was the first female rector we had.
