Fr Morel in Louisiana?

  • Does anyone know the current position of Fr Morel in Louisiana?  Is he still Resistance?  Does he support or oppose the 4 bishops?  An anti-Williamson family mentioned inviting him to our area, which is confusing to me.

  • Resistance, but I haven't heard of him offering Mass for any Resistance locations apart from his in Louisiana.

  • Fr. Morel had heart problems when I met him 10 years ago, though you would never know it, as he seemed strong as an Ox.

    Yes he supports the 4 Resistance bishops. Just because someone has a beef with +Williamson doesn't mean it's dogmatic, extending to +Williamson's position on the Crisis, or extending to  everyone he associates with :)

    For all you know it's a family or personal thing. Maybe a Paterfamilias (or Materfamilias) had a falling out with +Williamson, and he told all his grown children they aren't to have anything to do with +Williamson anymore. But what if some of those families actually had no problem with the Resistance?

    See what I mean?

  • It is rumored that the location in Lacombe, Louisiana (the new chapel known as 'Our Lady of Fatima') is NOT Resistance-anything, as they are now having the SSPX come in for their Sunday Masses. It seems that they just want their Latin Mass at 8 AM and then to be able to go home. If this information is incorrect, then please (anyone) rectify it.

  • 1. It's not a rumor; the SSPX (and many on "the board" of the chapel you mention) are indeed machinating to take over this (former?) Resistance chapel. I think the SSPX has a weakness for money and real estate the same way a drug addict has a weakness for more drugs. Waving a $700,000 chapel in front of the SSPX is like waving a raw steak in front of a starving dog.

    The SSPX is drunk on prestige, power, fame, and all that. They have fallen so far from the ideals of their saintly founder, Archbishop Lefebvre. Today, any good they do is SO THAT they can keep the people happy, get more money, maintain their authority, power and influence, etc. How can I tell? When Catholic morality and pursuit of more fame/power/money are at odds, which do they choose? Which is their priority? The organization always selfishly chooses "the benefit of the SSPX" even when souls are damaged as a result.

    The SSPX has also been caught violating God's commandments for the good of the organization (in their propaganda, etc.). "The ends justify the means" -- which is not a Catholic principle, by the way.

    2. Fr. Morel is completely against these machinations.

    3. I haven't yet received the full package of evidence, "the full story", etc. I've received a pretty complete report of what's going on there, from someone very close to the events, but I'm still waiting for a promised dossier or package of evidence related to this matter.

  • I attend Fr. Morel's Mass in Baton Rouge. Yes, the SSpx is taking  Our Lady of Fatima chapel. I would rather not put details of what Father told us, out in public. Fr. Morel is now saying one Mass on Sunday in Baton Rouge.
