    It is true about Fr. Fahnestock. I do not know if it is formal yet. He definitely needs prayers. He was one of the best priests I've ever known.


    I am a member of the Prayer Crusade for Priests and will definitely pray for him. That is horrible news if it is for sure true.

    I heard from a reliable source the Fr. Fahnestock left the priesthood. I was not going to make it public but if true, he will need many prayers. I've heard of other priests who have left the priesthood and no one prays for them because the SSPX keeps it secret. I don't know anything else about Fr. Fahnestock.


    This breaks my heart.  He assisted with my conditional baptism when I came to tradition.  Prayers, prayers, and more prayers for him.

    I believe Fr. R is not in good health and taking some time off as a "sabbatical."


    That is what we were told originally, then I heard somewhere that he would teach at the new seminary but he is not listed there.  I hope all is well with him.

  • Could Father Wegner, be a little sadistic, by putting Hewko's nephew, Father Carlisle, just 45 miles away from Pfeiferville?

    Fr. Carlisle - Louisville
    Fr. Brown – Pittsburgh, Girard

    I should have said: "Is leaving...". Because I heard about it a few weeks ago, I assumed it had already happened. I heard yesterday that it has not. Prayers for him are specially needed right now.

    Or he could follow in his uncle's footsteps, are they on good terms?  It will be interesting to see where he (Fr. Carlisle) is in 2 years.

    Its good news... he had a little set-back, has been humbled and  is coming back.

    Pray for him... that he be enlightened to true tradition.

    And may God bless him.

    Your point is well noted.

    The key factor will be for him to stay off the Pfeiffer property to avoid any curses from the Mexican witch.





    Make no doubt about it... this is serious business.  Flirting with the occult is physically and spiritually fatal.

    Anybody know what happened to Fr. Fahnestock?  He was in Kansas City in 2014, made prior in Armada, MI., in 2015, and now he's just...gone?


    He was never made prior in Armada, MI in 2015.  It went from Fr. Brucciani to Fr. Boyle.  I haven't heard of Fr. Fahnestock, so I can't help you there.  


    That's correct. I'm not sure why the change from Fr. Fahnestock to Fr. Boyle was made, since I had also heard back in 2015 that Fr. Fahnestock was supposed to be going to Armada. Obviously, I would assume that the reason Fr. F. was never made prior in Armada would also be the reason he has dropped off the radar...whatever that reason is.

    Fr. Jordan Fahnestock was ordained in Winona in 2009, part of Winona's largest ordination class ever (13 ordinands). I have listened to a couple of his sermons and they are really good. I was also told by an SSPX seminarian, who is now an SSPX Priest, that Fr. Fahnestock is really funny, and meeting Fr. Fahnestock should be "bucket list" material for everyone.

    Fr. Boyle was an excellent pick for Armada though. Armada is exceptionally blessed to have the three Priests that it currently has. I'm not all that familiar with Fr. Pazat one way or the other, but Fr. Boyle and Fr. Webber are both superb preachers and Priests in general.


    You are correct.  Fr. Webber and Fr. Boyle are both fantastic priests!  Fr. Pazat is good too.  He has been doing the Detroit (Livonia) and Bay City circuit for probably around 10 years now.

  • Yes, Fr. Fahnestock has an outstanding sense of humor, something many SSPX priests lack.

    Which Fr. Boyle?
    Fr. Richard Boyle is horrible, a mere puppet to the ones controlling the purse strings. 

    Unless there are two Fr. Pazats, I thought he left the priesthood?

  • I missed this thread back in 2016, or at least the part about Fr. Fahnestock. I saw him in Watkins, CO in 2017, offering un-announced Masses at St. Isadore's several Sundays in a row while he was visiting his family there. So if it's true that he'd left the priesthood by 2016, he was back in cassock and offering Mass in 2017. He was not with the SSPX at that time, but apparently on friendly enough terms with them to offer Mass in their church.
