I have notified several Resistance bishops and clergy (in France, England, and America) about the situation, and proposed arranging at least temporary accommodations with the sisters in France.

Ps: Soon I will also pass along your good advice to the friend who is in contact with the sisters to have them reach out to the sisters in France as well.
Thank you, even if the Sisters are not sympathetic to the Resistance, at least the offer should be made to help them with temporary home.

The news gets even bigger:

I was not aware she was Mother Superior of all the SSPX sisters in Great Britain.

“Big News From The UK
Sister Mary-Elizabeth, Mother Superior of the SSPX nuns in the UK, has decided to leave the SSPX. The SSPX have failed to change her mind and she will leave in a few days to an undisclosed location. Held in great respect, she is thought not to have been happy with the recent happenings at the school, although it has not been stated whether this is the reason for her leaving. It is a fact that she was asked to explain her and her fellow nuns non-appearance at the visit of Bishop Egan, to Second Assistant of the SSPX Fr Bouchacourt yesterday.

We would ask all readers that they pray that she may have the courage to join with the work of the four Resistant bishops following the work of Archbishop Lefebvre.

Her fellow nuns, whilst remaining in the SSPX, have asked the General House for new placements.”

Sad to see the other nuns lack the steel of their Mother Superior, and appear to be willing to remain aboard the Titanic!

I am not able to reveal this source, but the information is indisputably correct given the identity of the source:


Dear X,

This is the summary of the situation with the Oblate Sisters:

They are 5 sisters + a novice.

The superior Sr Marie Elisabeth and the other sisters manifested the decision of leaving the School and the Oblate sisters before the recent visit of the local novus ordo bishop.

But given that they (and a certain number of parents) didn’t attend the bishop’s visit, Fr Bouchacourt came and forced them to leave ASAP.

After reading the docuмents from the last General Chapter Sr M-E arrived at the conviction that the SSPX was taking a wrong path.

They’re now out of the School, some of them living with their families.

Sr M-E is French, one from Kenya, 2 from the Philippines.

[...] thinks they’re already in contact with Bp W.

[...] hopes the sisters work with the Resistance.

You may share this information but without specifying the source [...] and without mentioning my name.


PS: See also the CCCC thread for additional information

Update:

Dear Parents,
Fr. Robert Brucciani has asked me to announce the news of Sr. Mary Elizabeth’s decision to leave the Society of St. Pius X. Sister will leave in the next few days and move on to a place which she has not disclosed.
Her decision dates from several months ago but we have only known about it very recently. Superiors have not been successful in guiding her to a change of mind.

The General House has also received requests from the other Sisters for new placements. In view of the difficulties they have experienced for some time now, they are in need of rest and discernment. The Sisters will, therefore, depart from St. Michael’s after Easter and take up residence abroad in different houses of the Society.
I cannot hide that the loss of the Sisters’ community comes as a tremendous blow. It reminds us that the crisis in the Church is still very much alive. Such events can even test our Faith. We must not, however, lose our trust in Divine Providence.
The Junior School staff have convened and for the remainder of this term and for next term, junior classes will be organised as follows: Mrs Joyce will take responsibility for Year 1. Miss Dunn will teach Years 2 and 3. Mr Hooley will teach Years 4, 5 and 6. Several pupils presently in Year 3 will pass to Year 4 after consultation with parents.
This redistribution of classes allows for classes to continue with minimal disruption. I am very grateful to the Junior staff for their readiness to give their all for the good of the children.

The school will seek to employ a new deputy-head of the Junior School in readiness for the new school year. It is too early to know if we will receive a new community of nuns. For this we can only pray.
In the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Rev. Fr. John Brucciani
Headmaster
St. Michael's School
Burghclere, Hampshire RG20 9JW

This is disgraceful, not Catholic, even by novus ordo, standards.  It's fortunate some of the sisters still have families to return to.  If it comes down to sleeping rough, may I suggest someone in England at least offer a roof and food?  Barring that, a tent or a van to live in until a better arrangement can be found.  Twice I've found myself homeless by the malice of others.  The first time I owned a bicycle and had a part time job while I was at University.  I purchased a tent and pitched it in the woods in an out of the way location.  I lived in it rent free for four months over the spring/summer months.  I was then eligible for discount housing through the university.  
The second time I lived out of and sometimes in my car.  This proved more difficult as I was in a large city and working full-time at a job. I would have lost my position had my homelessness been found out or my physical appearance noticeably deteriorated.  I eventually found a "safe" place to park at night amongst various night and rotating shift workers.  There were black car taxis, ambulance drivers, the 6 hr. on, 6 hr. off security for a nearby hospital and an assortment of car and van stealth dwellers.  The main drawback was lack of a restroom.  I could shower at the pool and gym attached to my work building.  At night, there was no choice but to resort to a clump of shrubs behind a store--OK for a guy, but not so nice for a woman.  The store had free Wi-Fi which could be picked up if you parked close to the building.  Thanks to this, I was able to take two on-line classes.  It lasted three months, which was plenty at age 55.  
Certainly, the homeless sisters should seek out Bp. Williamson.  Even if they don't join the resistance, I cannot imagine him leaving them out in the open.
