This is odd because I know of three current priests (at least one was ordained while at the abbey) who are sedevacantist and two of them (I have not met the third) claim that the Abbot was indeed a sedevacantist himself but believed that the issue was divisive and would not make any public statement.  Sedevacantism was not a requirement at the Abbey nor was it really an issue to be discussed.

The other person who was sedivacantus was Brother John. Father Micheal was always on the line. He would claim to be sedivacantus but would then also agree with SPXX. It was a discussion that was brought up frequently because Sr. Veronica had wanted the convent to make a stand and claim to not be sedivacantus. The Abbot would claim that what mattered was that we follow the rule of St. Benedict and the dogmas of the Holy Church, everything else was "fluff." Like I said I was a nun there for five years and we were instructed to never state where we personally stand. I came from Mary Immaculate Catholic Church Omaha, Ne where we are all sedivancatus. But, it does not really matter now since the Abbey is changed and the monastery for the nuns has been shut down.

I understood that Fr. Leonard and Fr. LeBLanc of Our lady of the Sun, would phone each other.  Fr. LeBlanc being independent, was not sedevacantist at that time, but Fr. LeBlanc did accept the Sedevacantist position months before he died in 2006.  

I understood at that time that Fr. Leonard had no position, and I also understood, he had a priest (?) with him for 20 years and he was the one who took over the Abbey to New Order when Fr. Leonard died.  I pictured this New Order priest was a silent infiltrator.  To bad.

You can hear much about the history of the Abbey from one of the monks who lived there at Restoration Radio:

The abbey quickly made a deal with the diocese after Fr Leonard died.  Infiltration would be the only explanation.
