    Has anyone heard of these Dominicans?

    What are their positions?

    Who are they allied to?

    Who are their priests, and where were they formed?

    Their website is vague about all of this.

  • Sacred Heart Parish Complex in Lawrence, Massachusetts is their home. This is a closed down diocesan location. They offer Mass without the una cuм, which is a bit surprising. Surely they would pray for St Peter, his successors, without naming him, for obvious reasons. It is detailed, including a direction not to say 'Amen' on receiving Communion, following a Conciliar form introduced maybe two or three years before the Mass of Ages was largely suppressed. They follow the moderated Pius XII fast rules but suggest the old midnight to morning fast for all able. Interesting.

    The link 404s for me, like all links, due to the font I think, so I'll leave this.

  • Their site links to here, 
    https://www.communityofhopeinc.org/

    And it in turn features the sermons of Bishop McKenna ... who was a Dominican.

    So I'm guessing that they're some kind of spinoff from Bishop McKenna.

  • I found this earlier thread with lots of info, including from someone who attends there and one person who appears motivated to smear them for some reason ... perhaps the family expelled from the school after two years of refusing to follow the guidelines in the school handbook.

    Evidently Father McKenna did leave them somehow, and after that Bishop Morello ordained a priest or two for them ... but this was 5 years ago, so there could be more now.

    This would appear to be the same Andres Morello who warned Bishop Williamson and Archbishop Lefebvre about Urrutigoity and then was expelled from the SSPX.

    Evidently Bishop Morello was consecrated by Bishop Neville, who in turn was consecrated by Bishop Sanborn, who was consecrated by Bishop McKenna, who was consecrated by Bishop Guerard des Lauriers.

    ...but not because Lefebvre/Williamson we’re protecting a pervert, but because Morello was a sede rector of the Argentine seminary in the process of stealing half the seminarians, already midstream in a war with Lefebvre for this reason, and consequently, Morello’s testimony regarding the anti-sede Urrutigoity was unfortunately not believed (ie., they thought Morello was sabotaging an enemy).

  • They offer Mass without the una cuм,



    Una cuмs "vermis equitavit".






    Una cuм famulo tuo Papa nostro Francis, Papa nostro Benedictus...




    "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi

    Why would it be surprising for them to offer Mass non una cuм?

    If they're sedevacantists... isn't that what they do?
