"...Bellaigue is today an important bastion, (about 20 monks), and they are autonomous. So as long as Rome hasn't rediscovered Tradition, I wish to speak of an important aspect: it is important to hold on to our autonomy, our local liberty… that will have bastions truly independent.
Then, people ask: “WHY?” ...'We could surely use a large global federation, all reunited, have greater strength, show greater numbers...'But we all forget one thing: it isn't the numbers that make strength (this is from the typical liberal language). What makes our strength is our (devotion inaudible?), the Faith of us all, their responsibilities, their (works inaudible?), taking on our responsibility locally. This is much more difficult. Very similar to a multi-national corporation: you are a simple agent sitting in an office, no responsibilities, cushy job...and doesn't have to worry (about the challenges of business). But now! look at the individual boutique owner...he has a shop,...if you don't work, or if you do your job badly - you will go bankrupt!
So, I mention this because it's important that the faithful, locally, realize these responsibilities. The faithful must say to themselves: 'Yes! I am a living element of this, (a small libation?). It is important that each faithful achieve the goal of his graces of state: religious, priests, bishops – voilà.
I had a good stay and visit with + Morgan. I was very edified - small cottage - he lives simply. I said: 'Well, your Excellency, wouldn't be a great time to start making associations or something?’ He said: 'No no! Especially not that!'
We mustn't have a rope tied to our leg...in relation to the combat for the Faith.
Then again, we have to plan for the formation of future priests, and this is plainly the responsibility of a bishop. We send them candidates, young people (to the monasteries/ religious houses). Mgr Lefebvre stated that 'We certainly cannot ordain someone who isn't affiliated to a Work (religious houses - bastions)..." So on the one hand, we need bishops; plus we needs Works...a bastion, bastions...”
