Quote from: Matthew

The devil didn't just tempt thousands of priests and faithful to be "discontent" with the SSPX on one fine day. The Resistance certainly has something to resist. The evidence is legion.

Exactly!

I don't think these transfers have anything to do with considering what's best for the faithful. The needs of the faithful in a given chapel setting are not taken into consideration at all. This is a leadership maneuver, designed, I believe anyway, to keep sspx priests from growing too comfortable in a parish, and become semi- independent; to keep priests and faithful from growing too attached to one another; to sow continual uncertainty in the minds of priests, and to always maintain them in a state of insecurity about both their present and future with the organization. It's a conscious, deliberate technique, I think, to control priests and keep them in line; to remind them that they operate only by Menzingen's indulgence, and that their situations might change dramatically at any moment in time; to prevent some, perhaps, from undertaking any organized resistance from within. It's all, quite frankly, very Stalinesque.

I agree entirely. I can confirm from my own experience that this is very evident. The good of the souls of the priests and the faithful come in far behind whatever political motives are behind the transfers and have done for several years now.

Fr. Boyle from the IHM chapel in St. Paul, Minnesota announced today that he will be leaving in August and that they will receive another young priest.

I happened to be in San Antonio for mass 2 weeks in a row. Fr. Chavarria's sermons were very good. It was a pleasant surprise. It was very evident that he spends his time in prayer and in study.

One of many good priests who, unfortunately, seems to be complacent with the new orientation of the SSPX.
