Standing on the precipice: why the Consecrations are necessary - Pax Orbis

Damian Keller argues that, for the good of the Church, and in obedience to Our Lady’s warnings, the Society of St. Pius X must go ahead with consecrations of new bishops – with or without the permission of Rome.
by Damian Keller
As one who is a volunteer within the SSPX and given the duties of caring for the Society’s priests at a Priory, I know very well the circumstances and why the SSPX is acting out of necessity in these tumultuous times befalling the world. I have also listened CLOSELY to what Our Lord and Blessed Mother have had to say in the past as well as other prophesies by the Saints and Blesseds concerning what is swiftly approaching.
Malachi Martin, who read the Third Secret, and advised to “keep your eyes on the sky”. had also foretold of what would happen to the hierarchy. I’m watching the sky and I don’t like what the sun has been doing in response to what is being done to the Church. The Miracle of The Sun was also a warning.

High Church Modernism part two: deconstructing the Traditional Church - Pax Orbis

This is second part of a series on the errors of one of the most prominent voices in the traditionalist Catholic world: Peter Kwasniewski. For those who think these articles are too ‘negative’, please recall that we are to “have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” – Ephesians 5:11. Part I of the series can be found here.
by Vinicius
For Peter Kwasniewski, traditional Catholic beliefs and practices are combined with and justified by Valentin Tomberg’s false mysticism (see Part One) and Gallican type views of the constitution of the Church. Both these tendencies rebelled and “lost” in the traditional Church (going back to its beginnings in some cases), but left an anti-tradition of heterodox “precedents” for High Church Modernism.
This version was therefore not received from the Church of the ages. Nor did it inform the first thirty years of traditionalist resistance to the spirit and letter of Vatican II (the first generation of traditional …

@V.R.S. well stated! Some of the conservative bishops were the worst wreckovators in the aftermath of the Council b/c even though they were appalled with the deconstruction i.e. adding the people's table, stripping the sacred art, and ripping out kneelers, they did it in the name of, well Peter speaks and we must follow!

V.R.S.

A mix of truth and nonsense. That "hyperpapalism" made easier for modernists to hijack the Church with Paul VI leading the "Council" and its revolution, and almost all the bishops blindly following it, is a historical fact.

This is the text of two letters written by Archbishop Lefebvre in 1988, just prior to the illicit consecrations. They show what was on his mind that that time - the salvation of souls and the good of the Church.

Archbishop Lefebvre to his bishops-elect

Below is the text of two letters written by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre to the priests he would soon consecrate as bishops, without the approval of Rome.
The letters were written on two consecutive days: June 12th and 13th, 1988. They were published in the traditionalist journal, Catholic, and are republished here with permission.
From Archb. Lefebvre to the four Bishops elect: June 12, 1988
“It’s over. The talks between Rome and ourselves are over. The more one thinks about it, the more one realises their intentions are not good. Look at what happened to the Traditional leaders, Dom Augustin, Fr de Blignieres, who went over to Rome and have been swallowed up. Rome wants everything to go Vatican II, while they leave us a little bit of Tradition.

Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre was a saintly man.
The hierarchy of the SSPX would have been more prescient if they had followed His Excellency Archbishop Lefebvre as he left them with the full understanding of the exact state of Rome regarding its disastrous state of apostasy.
However, they did not do so when they sidestepped to involve the SSPX in a compromised position by their 2012 Declarational Agreement with Rome.

New episcopal consecrations announced!

Press release of February 2, 2026 – SOURCE: SSPX News
On this February 2, 2026, feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin, Fr Davide Pagliarani, Superior General of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, France, publicly announced its decision to entrust the bishops of the Fraternity with the task of carrying out new episcopal consecrations, on the 1st of July.
Last August, he requested the favour of an audience with the Holy Father, letting him know his desire to filially explain to him the present situation of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. In a second letter, he explicitly opened up about the particular need of the Fraternity to ensure the continuation of the ministry of its bishops, who have travelled the world for nearly forty years to respond to the numerous faithful attached to the Tradition of the Church and desiring that the sacraments of Orders and Confirmation be conferred, for the good of their souls.

The SSPX will do what they need to do to survive. Rome will either excommunicate them or they won’t. The end. The last time Rome excommunicated them for this sort of thing (1988) it backfired and the SSPX grew exponentially. Rome eventually had to revoke the excommunications (2009). If Rome does it again, it will only backfire again, bigger this time.

WHAT THE HYSTERICAL MAGA CROWD AND THEIR FÜHRER WILL ACCOMPLISH -- GLOBAL COMMUNISM
Today I was struck with the understanding of why a political grouplet of Americans (the MAGAtard Trump supporters) are rabidly in favour of being stripped of their basic, constitutionally guaranteed civil and religious rights -- and in blind enthusiasm, cheer on the tyrant who robs them of their most cherished birthright as Americans -- their LIBERTY. As with the rabid supporters of Hitler and Stalin, they believe the verse in the Psalms applies to them: "Though a thousand fall at your side, and 10,000 at your right side, you it will not touch." As long as they rabidly support their Leader or Führer, they enjoy the favour of the commanding heights. They don't need rights. They think they have something better -- immunity, impunity. The wrath of the State's punishing arm won't touch them, but will strike only the "others". But when the Supreme Leader's realm and power unravel, he …More

Secularism, the new barbarism?

The abduction of Venezuela’s head of state (which cost eighty Venezuelan lives and was not preceded by a declaration of war) and his arraignment before a New York court epitomises how far secularist Western society has departed from the old Christian West.
In more Christian times, regardless of the moral caliber of a society’s leader, he was treated with respect by other states because of his position, no matter the ferocity of their differences.
Here are a couple of examples:
During the Hundred Years War, John II of France was captured at the Battle of Poitiers (1356): While surrounded, he continued fighting until a French exile in the service of England, Denis de Morbecque, offered him an honourable surrender: “Sire, I am a knight of Artois. Yield yourself to me and I will lead you to the Prince of Wales”.
That night he was waited upon at dinner by Edward, the “Black Prince”. Records show that, while in captivity in England, he lived in the Savoy Palace, purchased pets and clothes …

The Council Fathers on Vatican II

There is plenty of evidence to show that Bishops and Cardinals who attended Vatican Council II were concerned from the start about its timing, its content and the serious omissions found in its documents.
While there is no doubt that it was a pivotal moment in the history of the Church, Vatican II represents for some a devastating rupture with Catholicism as it was always taught, while it remains for others the surprising revelation of a Catholicism which had hitherto not been discovered.
As a liberal, Pope Leo XIV falls into the latter camp and has
announced that he will begin a new catechesis series on Vatican II. He believes we must “continue to seek ways and means to implement its insights” and that “it will be important to get to know it again closely.”
In more conservative circles, many have woken up to the fact that implementation was never the problem. Like Communism, which its loyal adherents say has “not yet been implemented properly”, Vatican II contains integral errors …

A 1987 interview with Archbishop Lefebvre, which reveals his mind prior to the 1988 consecrations.
"Today however, it is the Faith itself which is at stake. I sense that the ‘conciliar’ Church changes and places the very centre of the Catholic Faith in danger. For this reason obedience is no longer possible; for even the Pope does not have the power to change the Faith, he is but a servant of the Faith. To accept Religious Liberty, Ecumenism, the Conciliar Reforms, would appear to me to be contributing to the ‘auto-demolition’ of the Church. In conscience, that is not possible for me. The Liberalism of the Pope is destroying the Catholic Faith from within."

“If it is my duty, I will consecrate bishops”

Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre uttered those words 38 years ago, when asked about the possibility of illicit episcopal consecrations by the Society of St. Pius X.
Today, the two remaining Bishops of the Society of Saint Pius X are facing the same dilemma that Archbishop Lefebvre faced nearly 40 years ago, as so far, there is no indication that Rome will grant permission for consecrations to be held in the near future.

Peter Kwasniewski, High Church modernism and Occultism. Part I

Dr. Peter Kwasniewski is a well-known North American writer on traditional Catholic liturgy. But he is also implacably committed to an esoteric religiosity that most traditional Catholics would be horrified by. Indeed twenty-five years ago, the esoteric, occultist version of traditional Catholicism that he and his network of writers have established barely existed. Yet traditional Catholicism was alive and well then, and a quarter of a century before that.
Esoteric, “High Church modernism” has not come from the traditionalist priests or faithful, but from networks of publishers like Angelico Press, who deliberately marketed occultist works alongside the most orthodox Catholic books in order to enter a “market” and proselytise it. It is only fair to people dismayed by the post-Vatican II crisis in the Church to inform them of how, under cover of opposition to one kind of change, an even more radical change is introduced.
It’s wrong to market occultism and heterodoxy under the banner …

Quite the discussion on that essay.

It is more than likely that we will have to endure Pope Leo for at least another twenty years, a fact which puts the very status of the conservative Catholic commentators in jeopardy. The prospect of a long period of reading and watching dozens of webcasters displaying higher and higher levels of shock and horror, all with doubtful effect, is a very gloomy one.

The age of ‘pay, pray and obey’ is now long past

Under the pontificate of Pope Francis, traditional Catholics were all of one mind as they absorbed numerous videos on the internet or read page after page of criticisms and outrage by the commentators. The worse the news from Rome, the more united became the ‘traddies.’ It was impossible to believe that things could deteriorate further as the faithful were treated to the outpourings from the Vatican – Amoris Laetitia, Traditiones Custodes, and then Synodality, interspersed with alarming throwaway lines spoken down a microphone aboard an aircraft.
The response to all these statements was shock, confusion and outrage. However, one took comfort from the fact that firstly, Pope Francis wouldn’t last forever, and secondly, that a new pope would put things right. After all, the next incumbent of the papal throne couldn’t possibly be worse than the current one – could he? Well, now we know! For anybody who has eyes to see, Pope Leo XIV is definitely ‘Francis Mark II’, …

Portugal: Case Study of a Successful Consecration

by Kathy Clubb
There is some confusion these days over whether or not Russia has ever been consecrated to the Immaculate Heart in accordance with the requests of Our Lady.
The first reference to a consecration was made in 1917, during Our Lady’s third apparition to the children at Fatima. During the apparition, the Blessed Virgin told the children She would later return to ask for Russia to be consecrated to Her Immaculate Heart, promising that this would lead to the conversion of Russia and world peace.
In June, 1929, Our Lady announced to Sr. Lucia at Tuy, Spain, that the time had arrived for the consecration to take place. Our Lord then visited Sr. Lucia two years later to repeat the request and again in 1936.
It wasn’t until 1942 that Pius XII became the first pope to attempt a consecration. Subsequent Popes have attempted consecrations right up to Pope Francis in 2022, with John Paul II making three attempts, but none of them fulfilled the simple request in all its details.

Greek Catholic Uniates in Hungary Removed the Filioque in September

Since 1 September 2025, the Greek Catholic Church in Hungary has omitted the 'Filioque' from the Creed during the Divine Liturgy.
This decision to abandon a Catholic tenet in order to appease the schismatic Orthodox was announced on Hd.gorogKatolikus.hu.
The article argues that, in recent decades, Pope John Paul II prayed with Orthodox patriarchs, omitting the 'Filioque'. It claims that this change is not an innovation, but a return to a text prayed by ancestors.
The current version states that the "Holy Spirit [...] proceeds from the Father". However, this can easily be misunderstood. According to the Western Church, the Holy Spirit proceeds "from the Father and the Son". The Eastern fathers said, what is also legitimately formulated, that he proceeds "from the Father through the Son".
However, the Holy Spirit does not proceed from the Father alone.

Leo XIV Appoints Canadian Archbishop – Promoter of Indigenous Paganism in Eucharists

Pope Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Stephen Andrew Hero, 55, as the new Metropolitan Archbishop of Edmonton, Canada. He previously served as Bishop of Prince Albert.
Born on December 19, 1969, in Montréal, he was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Edmonton in 2000. In 2021, Pope Francis appointed him Bishop of Prince Albert.
Inculturation of Mother-Earth Indigenous Rituals
In May 2025, the Catholic Bishops of Saskatchewan – including Bishop Hero – issued a directive on “Liturgy and Inculturation for Indigenous and Métis Celebrations.”
It allows drums to be used during the Eucharist with guidance from an Elder. In Indigenous natural religion, drums are considered sacred because the drumbeat symbolizes the heartbeat of “Mother Earth.”
Furthermore, the directive allows sweetgrass or sage to be used in place of incense during the Eucharist. Sweetgrass is often referred to as the “hair of Mother Earth” and is therefore regarded as sacred.
The indigenious ritual of "Smudging" is also …More

@Mike the Pike @Novena - Oremus I mean anyone who thinks a TLM in St. Peter's without a prior re-consecration is a sign that the tables of Modernism are turning. LifeSite is not in that category as it tries to report on everything relevant, using a journalistic approach. The others mentioned are, sadly, compromised in some way, whether through attachment to Modernism, to money, to notoriety, or to pressure from Zionists.
