At one point Wiest claimed he was ordained in Italy, and now he is supposed to have been ordained by the “Old Catholics”?

Something isn’t smelling right.

There is no mention of Rematt performing ordinations in 1997 in Rome.

He was ordained to the Holy Priesthood on May 28, 1982, and consecrated Bishop on June 22, 1987, by the Most Rev. John E. Schweikert in Colorado. After serving in the Chicago area for many years, Father Ted returned home in 2004, where he began SS. Lazarus, Martha and Mary Old Roman Catholic Church in the former St. Lawrence Catholic Church. Father Ted also served the area as chaplain for Horizons Hospice until 2015. Friends will be received from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. Friday at Moriconi Funeral Home Inc., Northern Cambria, and from 9:30 a.m. until time of funeral Mass at 11 a.m. Saturday at SS. Lazarus, Martha and Mary Old Roman Catholic Church, the Most Rev. Bishop Louie Malazio and the Rev. Father Leonard Bealko, concelebrants. Interment, church cemetery. Military honors by local veterans organizations.

Bishpp Rematt was an Archbishop in the Old Roman Catholic Church for many years.

Perhaps I missed it, but does Wiest have a car?  Where does he live?  Does he live in the house where Fr. Perez lived?  If he drives, he's driving without a license.

Yes he has a car. He lives with his Buddha altar in a home provided by those of us who have contributed to OLHC. Father Perez's family owned the home where he lived. Wiest is either driving without a license or driving with a license with a different name. Whoever he is, he is not a Catholic priest.

when Bishop John Schweikert was consecrated by Archbishop Richard Arthur Marchenna assisted by Bishop Vipartas. Bishop Schweikert listed other other people as his consecrators but this appears to be the most accurate.7 Bishop Vipartas previously ordained Schweikert on June 4, 1955. Schweikert continued as Vicar General under Archbishop Marchenna after his consecration, later departing from him and joining Archbishop Cyrus Starkey of Connecticut.

Someone posted this biased source AS IF it is significant that Schweikert was consecrated by someone from the heretical North American Old Roman Catholic Church.

The same biased link also says Bishop Schweikert listed other  people as his consecrators but conveniently leaves out the fact that one of the other fake "Bishops" who performed a fake "consecration" was the nutcase Abbate who claimed to be divine. Schweikert assumed leadership (and complete financial control) of the Abbate cult.

Then Rematt tool over the cult and did his best to cover up the Abbate's multiple child rapes, multiple hospitalizations for insanity, the trips to Mars, Abbate's reincarnation, yada yada.

This Rematt, Wiest claims, is the one who "consecrated" him.

Abbate      >     Schweikert    >   Rematt     >    Wiest

is a direct line of involvement with a cult opposed by the Catholic Church in the early 1900s, as evidenced (cited earlier) by the fact that Catholic priests would stand out in front of the cult meetings and warn wayward cult members that they would be excommunicated if they continued to attend.

So even if one was to give Wiest the benefit of the doubt, that he was actually ordained by a bishop in the North American Old Roman Catholic Church, let's see what the NAORCC claims to believe:

https://www.naorcc.org/faq

If you read the docuмent, you will find that:

1. they ordain married priests.

2. they will declare an "Ecclesiastical Divorce" for a couple when they experience, not the physical death of a spouse, but upon "the death of the marriage."

3. their version of the "Tridentine Mass" may be "celebrated in the vernacular tongue."

So under a best case scenario for "Fr. Wiest," he would need to publicly renounce any and all heretical positions that he once took as a priest of that NAORCC false Church and convert to authentic Catholicism. Why would anyone want to have such a person leading their Church?

NOT Catholic. 

Grace-filled beautiful blessings from God to  Fr. Starbuck today!  A magnificent successful day at Fr. Starbuck's St, Dominic's Chapel.  There were 50 souls at the 7:30 Mass and 65 souls at the 9:30 a.m. Mass.  Almost standing room only!  Father was so pleased.

In addition, today was the first day of the live "feed" on UTube of the Mass entitled "St. Dominic's Chapel (Fr. Cedrik Starbuck). It can be seen anytime now.  As of now, there are 307 views today! A wonderfully successful day for God's servant Fr. Starbuck!

Ten of us were sitting in Father's living room and kitchen. Yea!

Before this gets further derailed lets bring this back to the original subject of this thread.

Father Starbuck has served us tirelessly and faithfully for 15 years. He was in good health when he arrived at OLHC. After several years, he became ill. As Catholics we know that our suffering is precious to Almighty God. For myself, when I am ill and unable to attend Mass, I suffer greatly and offer my suffering to Him. When I cannot fulfill other obligations, I offer my suffering to God. Knowing Father Starbuck, he offering his suffering for the members of the chapel. It was less than two years. Those who spread lies and rumors will have to answer to God.
