    Is it absolutely true though? Are there no schedules posted anywhere online of the bishops Masses, conferences or Confirmations?
    I am pretty sure not. I think there are some private email lists but this would do us only limited good. Depending on timing and where we are at that time, we could travel to any number of destinations. Knowing the broader schedule would be much more helpful to us.  

    It would be great if someone could become a public schedule coordinator, to let the public know when and where the priests and bishops are visiting. But who is in such a position to do this? And would the priests and bishops allow for it? I understand the complexities of the situation and am trying not to be resentful, but I have to admit it is creeping in a bit.

    Have you considered that perhaps there have been threats of violence or confrontation of some kind?

    I wouldn't put it past certain figures to get a bit desperate when things take so interminably long to accomplish.

    • I'm of the opinion that this is a very dated "problem". If in the years since these places began offering Mass, a person has not been there even once, the likelihood of them going at any point is very low. If you go for years without Mass, you probably don't have the means to travel to the closest location. We travel periodically to the nearest chapel with regular Mass times, and so we're on that chapel's email list. We'll know if there are going to be Confirmations, etc. because we get their bulletin each week. Unless you're saying the problem is that these places don't have email lists...

    • The benefits of putting up conferences far outweigh the downsides.

    There are many souls who are isolated and need to nourish themselves on sound doctrine. Having conferences given recently helps console them by making them feel linked in, which they already are spiritually of course.

    .
    I don't think anyone disagrees with this. The delay in posting conferences is usually only practical considerations like availability of a good internet connection. It's usually only a couple of days before a conference (in the U.S.) gets posted online. Some of them take a bit longer if the person recording the video has the time and ability to produce a more professional video.
    .
    This presumes the priest has given permission, but this topic is primarily about Bp Williamson and he regularly has new content online.

    • Perhaps, but I doubt it.
