    DeepL.com translation:

    Pierre Épiney, the parish priest of Riddes, celebrated his 60th anniversary of priesthood, surrounded by a bishop and several priests, not to mention his faithful parishioners. Jean-Michel Faure, superior of the seminary of St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort and a dozen confreres were present. Bishop Williamson was supposed to be present but the health dictatorship prevented him from leaving English soil.

    Father Epiney is a venerable figure among the Catholics of the Valais and Archbishop Lefebvre had great esteem for the parish priest. The latter had no hesitation in following Archbishop Lefebvre during the 1988 consecrations. But his stance against the rallying of the SSPX to modernist Rome from 2012 onwards have now closed the doors of the seminary of Ecône to him. Like the venerable Eleazar who did not want to eat meat to idols despite his very advanced age, the parish priest of Riddes did not want to eat the dish of the rallying despite his poor health and his solitude.

    Beautiful example of fidelity to the good fight of the Faith and beautiful example for the priests of Archbishop Lefebvre!

    And shame on those who closed the doors to him. But if the crosses of Fidelity can sometimes make the priest suffer, the joy of knowing that he is supported by other confreres balms the heart and allows him to continue this good fight until the end.

    Thus, a dozen priests from Switzerland, Germany, Italy and France gathered around the Jubilee on the eve of June 3 and shared a meal that was a bit like that of Jesus before the Last Supper.

    On Corpus Christi, the parish priest celebrated Holy Mass. And everyone was able to rejoice in the spiritual vigor of the one some call "the Rock of the Valais". May the faithfulness of the parish priest be an example for all of us.
