+Fellay announced this plan in a sermon on Dec. 28th (approximately).

This seems to have taken the place of the topic of the consecration to
the Immaculate Heart of Mary, which is no longer mentioned, as if the
specification from Rome is for +Fellay to "drop it" if he wants to continue
to pursue a 'deal' with modernist Rome.

Now, while it would be obviously contrary to the teachings of ABL to say
"there is no salvation outside the SSPX," why not just consecrate the
Society to the Patron of the Universal Church, so that he can perhaps be
thought of as the Patron of the Society (instead of that bothersome
anti-Modernist, St. Pius X).  For, by becoming the Society with the Patron
who is Patron of the Universal Church, what then is the distinction between
the Society and the Universal Church, if any?  IOW, kill two birds with one
stone:  1) Get rid of Pope St. Pius X, and  2)  proclaim the supremacy of
the SSPX without having to put it into words.

Curiously, while there is nothing wrong with devotion to St. Joseph, it was
however the addition of the name of St. Joseph to the Canon of the Mass
in 1959 +/-,  that was the harbinger of the new missal of John XXIII, Vat.II,
and the Newmass.  They used the addition of his name to the Canon to
test the waters of renovation to see if they could then foist additional
changes onto the Church without resistance.  And they got away with it,
because there was no uprising...





There is a sedevacantist chapel I know about that prays a very similar
prayer to St. Joseph every day, and a special one in March, the month
of St. Joseph.  A sedevacantist chapel - THAT'S VERY INTERESTING,
ISN'T IT??  (As +Fellay is wont to say)


Consecration of SSPX to St. Joseph

As a result of the SSPX's 2012 General Chapter, it was decided to place the Society under the patronage of St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church and therefore protector of Holy Church.

This solemn dedication will occur on March 19th through an act of consecration of the priestly society in all of the SSPX's houses and chapels.

O glorious St. Joseph, Spouse of the Immaculate Virgin, Foster Father of the Son of God, appointed Head of the Holy Family and raised up as Heavenly Patron of the Universal Church;

Thou whose faith triumphed over doubt, whose justice was as great as thy chastity, whose obedience was the servant of thy wisdom, whose strength went hand in hand with thy prudence and whose magnanimity vied with thy humility;

Thou model of those devoted to labor, assurance of those in the midst of battle, terror of the demons unleashed against the work of the Redeemer;

Thou who didst employ all thy virtues in saving the God-man from grave perils, and who from on high dost protect His Mystical Body, subjected to the ever-renewed attacks of its enemies;

Cast thine eyes upon this little portion of the flock of Jesus Christ, which an inscrutable plan of God has raised up to safeguard the Catholic priesthood and the Catholic Faith.

Conscious of its nothingness and enlivened by a boundless confidence in thy powerful patronage, O Blessed Patriarch Joseph, the Priestly Society of St. Pius X consecrates itself to thee, with all its members and all its undertakings, in order to magnify thy glories and thy virtues.

Deign in return, O most generous Steward of the King of Glory’s bounty, to grant to this little family the same benefits that thy paternity obtains for the entire Church: deign to make it thine own, to keep it faithful to its statutes, to make it live and propagate the Sacrifice of the Altar, to enrich it with spiritual life, to establish its members in the sanctity and chastity proper to their state, to strengthen it in its holy apostolic labors, to lead it in the combat for the Faith, to thwart the traps of the Enemy and to make it serve the interests of the Church.

Deign also, O our faithful Intercessor, to make of this humble legion of restorers a firm support for the Roman Pontiff in his mission to confirm his brothers in the clear and entire profession of Faith of St. Peter: "Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God."

O thou who wast providentially placed at the side of Mary our Queen, grant that we, through thine irresistible intercession with Jesus, Sovereign Priest and King of Eternal Glory, may live and preach in all their most concrete consequences the divinity, the priesthood and the royalty of this same Jesus Christ, Who with the Father and the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth, God, world without end.

Amen.
