    • Does anyone know why Bishop Fellay is called an Auxiliary Bishop,  as is listed under his picture in the Immaculata Church Project brochure?

    .
    I'm taking a guess here.  Since the SSPX no longer has supplied jurisdiction and gets
    jurisdiction for confession, marriages and last rites from Pope Francis and the marriage
    paperwork goes to the local diocesan bishop and they have changed some holy days
    of obligation to be not so, to match the NO calendar ...

    that they are actually part of the NO diocese.  Then the "primary" bishop would be the
    local diocesan bishop.  In that case, Bishop Fellay would be an "auxiliary" bishop.

    I could be wrong, but that seems to be what they want ... to be recognized,

    Same as it was since 1988, the bishops are considered auxiliaries of the SSPX under the SSPX superior general.
