Dear Tim,
When I came to Pius X Society I was required to present the ordination ceremony, the docuŠ¼ents concerning the ordination and the statements
from the Salesian Society. All of which were evaluated by Bishop Fellay and Fr. John Fullerton, the District Superior. They were satisfied that the
ordination which I had received lacked nothing of the essense for the priesthood so that they did not require or ask me to be conditional(ly) re-ordained.
In the aftermath of that I began to find traditionalist that question every ordination and so they caused doubts in the minds of the faithful. Since I recognized
this as a problem I quietly went through the simple ceremony to be conditionally reordained.......
I don't spread this around because I don't believe my personal life is the business of the world. Also I had the opportunity to study at Winona for the year and to be able to practice and appreciate all the aspects of the true and legitimate Holy Mass.
As you know I was asked to work with Fr. Grunner prior to my entrance into the Pius X apostolate in Syracuse, New York.
I have always had a good relationship with Frs. Joe and Tim Pfeiffer and believe them to be holy and apostolic priests who will not give in to the liberalism of the world. So now I am working at the chapel on the Pfeiffer grounds and in the battle for the faith. I suspect that the IA site is questioning my ordination and the validity of the masses which I offer. I have not read it but I suspect it since I have had someone put my writings on that site. Your email leads me to believe it even more. Am I correct?
IN the Hearts of Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
Fr. Voigt
A letter from Father Voigt which was posted on Ignis Ardens.
Thank you for this! I had asked around, even a priest, about Fr. Voigt's Orders. I was told as recently as two weeks ago that the Society accepted his orders as valid. This does make sense though, that he was conditionally ordained quietly as a matter of personal conscience, and also that the Society did accept his Orders as valid.
Thanks so much.
Do you mind if I pass this to a friend? We were just talking about this Saturday night.
