Most unsurprising. Rigorous and thoroughly Catholic reading a requirement these days - I strongly suggest the ''Mystery of the Jєωs'' (Crowdy, Novak), Dillon, Fahey. Note the despicable Lutheran advent wreath.

In a time when sodomy is generally accepted and our towns and cities look like Gomorrah itself on a Friday night, when Jєωry has an uncontrolled throttling hold round the neck of our Government and Europe is being flooded by Mohammedans to an extent that the Sultan would be proud of, the Society has failed.
O God of earth and altar,
bow down and hear our cry,
our priestly rulers falter,
our people drift and die

Like a coward, I went to an SSPX Mass and confessed going on here and supporting the Resistance for fear of being branded 'nαzι' by my family. It's beneath contempt.

So it cost them 1120 per year per faithful in 2014 and they received only 620 per year per faithful in donations?

Hmmm....

Not very efficient, are they?

Did that include the expenses for their role playing of the English version of junior R.O.T.C.?

But I've never heard of this "Dollars per faithful per annum" metric before, at any Trad chapel I ever attended. I guess none of them were as "worldly wise" or money-minded as the SSPX...

I guess that's what you get when the Superior General is still a Bursar or accountant at heart!

Call me simple, but if you put God first and do things right, the people (and the money) will come. "Seek first the Kingdom of God..."

Legacies are conveniently off balance sheet to emphasise it is an operating loss exercise. Creative accounting has been used to demonstrate what a favour the Society is doing! My work with charities reveals bequests and benefaction to be the principal source of revenue.

I hate to say it but in the vernacular, "it sounds like a racket to me"

When in India the same priest told us that the local lay folk coughed up only 16% of the traveling costs of the priest. This is of course a half baked caked especially if other cost cutting measures that do not affect the celebration of Mass at various centres are not put into place.

Maybe nothing but notice the Ephesians (1:10) passage expressed by St. Pius X's encyclical, E Supremi, On the Restoration of All things in Christ, and what Archbishop Lefebvre used as a SSPX moto, Instaurare omnia in Christo. This newsletter has it Omnia instaurare in Christo. The Vulgate version is Instaurare omnia in Christo.

Someone versed in Latin might insight whether this

Google searched what appears to be the New-SSPX version and found the SSPX filed a new trademark in 2014 by an attorney Michael Atkins on behalf of the French SSPX.

https://trademarks.justia.com/864/46/omnia-instaurare-in-86446368.html

Another website stated the following: Omnia instaurare in Christo is here the motto of the French newspapers (that, I say in passing, have retained their national [...] identity whereas the German press is imitating the journalistic style of American papers).

Is the version merely a French translation of the Vulgate, a typo, or an act against what the SSPX used to stand for?

Our Lady of Lourdes, please help these sons of Lefebvre return to the fight!

Instaurare omnia in Christo,

Latin doesn't care about word order, so strictly speaking they are equivalent.

But legally speaking they might NOT be equivalent -- for purposes of trademarks, uniqueness, and lawsuits.

I'm more concerned about them trying to TRADEMARK a motto as Catholic as restoring all things in Christ -- which was taken from Scripture itself!

So, I guess that means that if Fr. Zendejas or any other good priests hops on the extremely Catholic bandwagon of promoting Restoring All Things in Christ and accidentally uses their "trademark" that the SSPX would/could sue him?

Trademarking rephrased passages of Holy Scripture -- this isn't a Catholic spirit. This isn't the way of Christ.
