Many might have heard that a new encyclical is in the works, one that would further restrict the celebration of the Tridentine Mass, as well as other sacraments conferred in the Latin rite. Most notably, it would forbid priestly ordinations in the Tridentine rite. This would impact several religious communities, such as the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter. That is a direct violation of Quo Primum, but with this Vatican crew, Sacred Tradition seems to be a thing to be despised.
I attend the Tridentine Mass at the Shrine of St. Alphonsus Ligouri. For years now it has been administered by the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter. Today during the homily the priests asked us to pray a Rosary novena that starts tomorrow, Monday February 6, to ask Our Lady's intercession for the preservation of the Mass and the charism of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter. The guideline, distributed at Mass today, appears below. Please join us and ask others to do the same.
