Curious as to why the SSPX pastor priests seem so insistent -- as if it's some sort of entitlement -- on taking their annual vacation. When queried they give the impression that it was somehow mandated(?!) by the archbishop and now by the SSPX in general. Hmmm? Interesting how the Patron of Parish Priests, St. John Vianney never once went on a retreat let alone a vacation in all his many long years working in the Lord's vineyard. How in the world did that poor man manage to stay "balanced," let alone become so holy?
