Are you in southern IN? Fr Bevan? We are up north at the SSPX chapel in Ft Wayne. We had a good solid priest for 3 years but have struggled with 2 in the last 1 1/2 years. It’s definitely a struggle, lots of prayer and independent study and advice from our old priest who stays in contact with us🙏🏼
Im in West-Central Indiana, Archdiocese of Indianapolis. i had forgotten of the other SSPX chapels in the northern part of the state. Do you have any info on Fr. Bernard Bevan in Greenwood Indiana?
Archbishop Lefebvre April 26, 1983, Conference to Seminarians, Ridgefield:That is another question, another problem. Fr. Stark said himself 'my ordination is good'. I am sure he IS a priest. He has been a priest for eleven years now, I think he is a very intelligent man. Not just because he is a Jesuit, no, no, no...(laughingly) ... but certainly he is a very intelligent man. He was a professor. He said to me 'My word, somebody is discussing about the validity of my ordination'. They discuss 'No, his ordination is not valid..' Well, that is the reason why I said to you yesterday, or the day before, that we must do an inquisition [a study of each case] to know what the situation really is - in this case - not in all cases in general [i.e., not a blanket judgment]- but in this case, to see if his ordination is valid or invalid. And I am responsible, and I make the decision. I can say to him: 'You must be re -ordained'. Otherwise, if I think that his ordination is valid, really valid, then I have no right to repeat the sacrament.You can find these conferences of Archbishop Lefebvre, which have previously been posted on this forum, online in both written format and audio. He delivered them in English, with a little help with the language on the side from a certain Fr Richard Williamson!
Then Msgr. Lefebvre reversed himself on the matter AS HE OFTEN DID. so much for your mighty replacement Pope, Plenus Venter. Looks to me like "The Nine" were correct in their assessment of Lefebvre.

I just stumbled across this review of a book written by Fr Bevan's father. Worth a read drphil if he is going to become your priest:https://www.lifesitenews.com/blogs/new-memoir-two-families-presents-catholic-social-history-of-england-in-an-engaging-way/
