I am so unbelievably blessed to be going ! ! !
Further information regarding the Episcopal Anniversary Celebration may be obtained from Fr. Pfeiffer's web site, or from sos save sspx website, here (http://www..com).
You may now make reservations, send donations, get hotel information. The Fathers are looking for generous souls to help fund this celebration undertaking, to help the priests' ( and Bishop's) transportation costs, and to offset some of the expenses. Please go to the above websites to offer aid and support to your priests.
I am just wondering if I should call and RSVP for the event..(?)
The problem is that is says to send a check and telling how many people will attend,,
But I have no credit card or bank card or checkbook...I have only cash which I can give to them there. Is this possible to still 'reserve space'? If anyone has a number I can call...I will really appreciate it. Thank you!!
This looks like the "official" poster. Maybe sspxbvm will calm down now.
Thank-you for posting this!

We are in urgent need of donations of plane tickets and transportation costs for the priests who come for the [Silver] anniversary [of the SSPX Episcopal Consecrations in Vienna, Virginia coming very soon].
This is not just a celebration, but a getting together of the priests of the Resistance.
This unity is needed so that they may become more united in their efforts as they go around the world tending souls.
Your donation is, of course, tax deductible if you make it using the PayPal link below.
Use the PayPal note to mark the donation for the above.
You will receive a receipt from PayPal for your donation.
Father Pfeiffer has been given a task of providing plane tickets and transportation to and from the event, as St. Athanasius will not pay any of the costs.
We are calling out to the faithful to help Father Pfeiffer in this task in raising $40,000 needed to bring the priests to and from Vienna, VA.
This will be an important meeting that will help solidify the Resistance -- may heaven grant graces and blessing to everyone that lends a hand to this effort, even if all they can afford is a dollar.
We entrust this whole matter in the hands of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, "Mother of the Priests par excellence, our Lord Jesus Christ, and through Him, of all Priests in whom she forms her Son".
Viva Cristo Rey![/color]
Rev. Father Pfeiffer, Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, expressed his appreciation to the many supporters who have responded with donations.
Important updates (mass locations, newsletters, etc.) will be posted as they become available.
Thank you for all your prayers.
May the Immaculate Heart of Mary and Sacred Heart of Jesus
protect you and grant you many graces.
*PLEASE REMEMBER*
Donations may also be marked with a note to Paypal for Father Ruiz, Mexico;
or Dom Tomas de Aquino, OSB, Monastery of Santa Cruz Nova Friburgo Brazil.
Paypal will send a tax receipt.
We Englishmen are sulking a little that you're keeping the good Bishop to yourselves! No, this is splendid. Enjoy!

To make a donation, go to the website, "Inthis - signyoushall -

replace "dot" with a period), and click on the DONATE button at
the bottom of the page.
Time is very short. This is already the 13th, and so the 29th is only 16
days away. That's only two weeks. Purchasing plane tickets this soon
to the need date is already more expensive.
I know two traditional priests who were going to go and they chose not
to because they saw the plane fares increase in one day. If you're going
to donate, do not delay because every day is another chance of price
increases.
I am very grateful for this hotel information as I only had the time to research these particular options. With the traffic of the DC area, the maps that I have included are for the local streets. Hopefully the traffic patterns will bring us to our destinations in a reasonable time frame. I would not suggest travelling on the DC beltway if it can be avoided. I included my phone number in case you needed any help.
