  • From Fr. Alphonsus:
    Quote
    "Dear Friends, here’s our website, in case you’d like to subscribe to it on the Home page. We’ve just added a blog, as well as pictures to the photo gallery and Parish Mission info. Please feel free to pass this around to anyone you think might be interested. Thanks in advance, and God bless!"

    For those who may be interested, Fr. Alphonsus has his own chapel now, it's just a humble little chapel for now, reminiscent of going to Mass when Mass was in peoples' homes back in the early days of this crisis, but he will be expanding in the near future.

    Fr. does travel a bit, so if he visits your area to give one of his missions, go to it, you will be glad you did.

    "Dear Parishioners,

    Father Alphonsus Marie, C.SS.R. has moved to his new property in Mussey, MI (near Capac), and will soon have others living at the monastery with him.

    Because of their vow of poverty, the monastery will be in need of many items. Father has created a wish list on Amazon, which may be shared with anyone who may like to help them out.

    Here is the link to his wish list: https://tinyurl.com/am4dwvka you will likely need to copy and paste the link as clicking it does not work for some reason.

  • I wonder why there is no mention of the Transalpine Redemptorists, to which he belongs, or did.

    They align themselves with Francis, but he mentions +Fellay.

  • Hmmm.  When Father Alphonsus filled in for Father Carley at IHM in Akron, we asked him to stay and eventually take over for Father Carley (now 90).

  • Bad sign, taken from their website:

    Bishop Fellay, the superior of the English-speaking religious of Tradition, now wants to start the first house of the Traditional Redemptorist Missioners in the United States in autumn 2022.”

    https://redemptoris.org/about

    How can +Fellay be the superior of another religious congregation??

    Looks like the dream of capturing all of tradition, and bringing it to modernist Rome wrapped in a bow, still lives.

    He has no business arrogating to himself the authority to lead an independent religious congregation (in this respect he deviates dramatically from the position of +Lefebvre).

  • It’s also interesting that when the former Transalpine Redemptorists sold out to modernist Rome, they were made to forego the Redemptorist name.

    Interesting that this latest spin-off is apparently permitted to use it.

    Anyone know why?

    Why wouldn't they keep the name?  It's not as if they've aligned with Modernist Rome ... yet.

  • The Transalpine Redemptorists from Papa Stonsay  Scotland,are still using that name and have bought land in Rosebud County Montana last year and call the property “Flower of Montana.”.

    http://papastronsay.blogspot.com/

    I don't think they are allowed to say the Mass in Latin in public.

    Bishop Fellay,  the superior of the English-speaking religious of Tradition,
    Are there now two superiors in the SSPX ? :confused:

  • Just call or message Father and let him know about Scott Hahn.   A few years back, Father was at our chapel and saw a book sale.  He personally spent an hour going through every book and throwing many in the trash (where Hahn's belongs).  I'll be seeing him soon at a parish mission, and I'll also mention it to him.

    I didn't see that on the website.  Is that on the wish list for Fr. Alphonsus or the others?

  • Here's their wish list (but only books that can be mailed to Canada)
    I'd have thought they'd be looking for old books from an old monastary library etc.

  • Hahn teaches the the Church does not require Christians "to believe either that creation came to be in six literal days or it did not."

    Ya, I don't know what happened, I took the tiny url down and coulda swore that I put the whole link in it's place, and it worked if you copy and pasted. My bad though as I'm sure Matthew has some script or something to disable links to Amazon so I should not have posted it at all. But thanks Miseremini for posting his list.
