Well, count on Fr. Pfeiffer, this Tetherow matter will simply get him talking faster and longer. He'll merely accelerate the rhetoric. He'll start talking so fast and so furiously that the only phrase the average person will understand is: "We're standing with the truth."

There are rumors spread by his enemies but who knows what is true.

I don't think we can dismiss it that easily.

1. We heard Fr. Pfeiffer speak about his "friend priest Fr. Tetherow" with his own mouth, posted on his own channel.

2. We looked up Fr. Tetherow, and there are the facts large as life.

3. We also have the testimony of one local to the area (Maria Auxiliadora) who attests that there is only (1) Fr. Tetherow in the area.

Sorry, but I don't think we can just shrug this off as so much Internet rumor. I wish we could!

P.S. It's really hard to generalize about "the Internet" when you're talking about 3.17 billion people. You might as well try to generalize about people in general.

I know many rumors are true. But I hope it is not true.

Dear cathinfo

Fr Tetherow is also on Bishop Accountablitiy
What caught my eye was an arrest in West Orange NJ at At Anthony of Padua
This is the original chapel Fr Wickens started and was turned over to the diocese of Newark after his death.
Fr Tetherow also states he was Mr Oregon sometime after high school on his classmate account
Fr Tetherow has also been serving a small chapel in southern NJ.
Also, in 2013 his name appeared on your site on an anonymous thread.

There is a lot on this ex priest, keep digging.

The Diocese of Scranton, Pennsylvania, has advised the
Conference of its concerns regarding Fr. Gabriel Francis (Virgil
Bradley) Tetherow, an incardinated priest of the Diocese who
was arrested for possession of child pornography in March
2005. Fr. Tetherow’s case is pending before the Congregation
for the Doctrine of the Faith. It has recently come to the
attention of the Diocese that Fr. Tetherow is celebrating Mass
for apparently schismatic group in York, Pennsylvania. Fr.
Tetherow’s faculties were removed and he is forbidden to
engage in any public ministry. Those needing further
information are asked to contact James B. Early, Chancellor of
the Diocese of Scranton, at 570-207-2216.
