The Superior General of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (SSPX) announced yesterday his intention to proceed with episcopal ordinations on July 1, saying the decision followed receipt of a letter from the Holy See that “in no way” responds to the Fraternity’s requests. The decision, announced in a statement from the General House in Menzingen, Switzerland, was taken with the unanimous support of the General Council and came after a seemingly unsuccessful attempt to obtain a private audience with Pope Leo XIV to present the Fraternity’s situation.
