    Also the SSPX does train Novus Ordo priests and they have been doing that for over 10 years.  It takes place at the old Regina Coeli House in Kansas City.  There is a collection taken up every year for this apostolate.  


    I thought I remembered something about this, but I couldn't say this for sure.  Thanks. for the updated information.

  • Actually it would appear that all the district superiors for the FSSP changed this year.

    Quote
    From the General House in Fribourg comes the following announcement, dated April 26, 2015:

    “Given that the terms of the three District Superiors will come to a close this coming July, Fr. John Berg, Superior General FSSP, following a vote by his General Council held in Fribourg on April 24, has nominated:

    Fr. Bernhard Gerstle as Superior of the Germanophone District beginning on July 13, 2015
    for three years.
    Fr. Benoît Paul-Joseph as Superior of the French District beginning on July 13, 2015 for three
    years.
    Fr. Gerard Saguto as Superior of the North American District beginning on July 13, 2015 for three years.

    On behalf of all of the members of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, the Superior General and his Council would like to express their profound gratitude to Fr. Axel Maussen, Germanophone District Superior since 2003, Fr. Vincent Ribeton, French District Superior since 2006, and Fr. Eric Flood, North American District Superior since 2008.

  • I don't think an SSPX-FSSP merger is likely. First obstacle is Pope Francis. The things he says get odder and odder. I used to think him a cunning Modernist, but while he was politician enough to become Conciliar Pope, his monologues are of a man with failing mental processes. The second obstacle is related in that people who see a hasty reconciliation with Conciliar Rome and then to a priestly society long loyal to Conciliar Rome, will just exit. They might go to SSPX-MC or SSPV (not sure if they are Sede) or another priestly society, perhaps even a Sede society. The third obstacle is there are two priestly societies who have in the time of their existence taken their own direction, even if they have a common ancestry.

    I just think it unlikely, but Matthew has his sources. We will see.
