Behind every Traditional Mass offered…
behind every future priest being formed…
behind every chapel built for the preservation of the Catholic Faith…
there are sacrifices that most people never see.
Many do not know this, but for years our seminary rebuilding project has struggled financially. There were long periods when the budget was nearly exhausted, when we honestly did not know how the workers would be paid or how the construction could continue another day.
Yet the work goes on — not because we are rich, but because Divine Providence continues to send generous souls.
Fr. François Chazal, Superior of the MCSPX and Rector of the Seminary, has carried this burden quietly for years. Those close to him know how often he sacrifices personally just to keep the mission alive. Sometimes, with his usual simple humor, Father says he may need to ask “Mommy” again so the workers can still receive their salaries and the seminarians can continue their formation. We smile when he says it — but behind the smile is a real sacrifice.
This mission is not supported by wealthy institutions or modern diocesan structures. It survives because ordinary Catholics, who still love Tradition, choose to help.
This video was filmed in March 2024 by a French lady who visited the seminary to interview Father Chazal. It is not a recent video, but I am sharing it so people may see the hidden work, struggles, and sacrifices behind this apostolate.
Thanks be to God, much has improved since then. The seminary tower destroyed by the typhoon has now been rebuilt in concrete and steel. The Heart of Jesus Mary Seminary here in Cebu is slowly rising again.
But we are still far from finished.
There are still materials to buy, workers to support, seminarians to feed and form, and missionary works to continue. Every donation — whether large or small — truly becomes part of the mission.
Even the smallest help can place another brick in the seminary…
help continue a missionary Mass…
or assist in forming a future priest who will preserve the Traditional Catholic Faith for souls.
If this work touches your heart, please consider helping us.
