Edit: as we’d reported below, there will be a Visitation. Looks like friendly forces so far, possibly just a social call and nothing more.
The recently mentioned Ordinary Apostolic Visitation of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP) is, as its name indicates, a routine measure determined by the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei (PCED).
The first news item of the visitation was posted by the FSSP themselves (see here) only with the name of the principal visitator. Rorate can now confirm that the visitation is indeed happening, and the officials are:
Bishop Vitus Huonder, of Chur/Coire (Switzerland), Principal Visitor (Wigratzbad)
Dom Hervé Courau, O.S.B., Father Abbot of Notre-Dame de Triors (France), Co-Visitor (Wigratzbad)
Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz, Bishop Emeritus of Lincoln, (United States)
The FSSP already tows the line with Conciliar Rome. Why should they fear a visit from Church hierarchy who are just like they are...non-Doctrine-defending, Novus Ordo-conceding "conservative" Catholics?
ReplyDeleteGod bless the good priests of the FSSP but that is the uncomfortable truth.
Excuse me. Bishop Huonder has come under attack in his diocese precisely for teaching Catholic doctrine and opposing ideologies hostile to the faith. You might verify your facts before disparaging others.
ReplyDeleteWhat are you talking about? Nothing in that post or anywhere else could possibly be taken to disparage Bishop Huonder.
DeleteOh, yeah, NVM. You were right! I love Bishop Huonder, he's one of the greatest bishops in the world!
