Archbishop Burke To Ordain Two
Using Traditional Rite...
"I am the
foundation, and when I speak of death, I do not mean the extinction of My
Church. But I say unto you now, all Bishops and Cardinals, all that is rotten
will fall. You consort with the enemies of your God for money and power, and
they are waiting to pick your bones clean. You will not bring about a conversion
of those who are presently apostate by compromising your Faith or changing the
construction of the exterior lines of My Church; and by that I mean the physical
appearance and the manner in which you conduct the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
"Many are giving My Body in a manner that can only be
called blasphemy. Many are accepting My Body in the Eucharist in a manner that
defames the Divinity, and also promotes unholiness, paganism, and impurity of
heart and actions during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass."
- Jesus, May 26, 1979
ST. LOUIS, Mo. — The Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis, on
Friday, June 15, will be the site of a church event not seen in St. Louis in
over four decades — Ordinations to the priesthood in the Traditional Latin rite.
The Most Rev. Archbishop Raymond Burke will be presiding at this ceremony, in
which two deacons of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest will be
ordained Roman Catholic priests.
The Institute of Christ the King is a
society of priests dedicated to Catholic tradition, founded in Italy in 1990.
Priests of the institute were assigned the historic St. Francis de Sales Oratory
in July 2005 by Archbishop Burke. Once known as the Cathedral of South St. Louis
for its size and magnificence, this church is now the home of the Latin Mass
Community of St. Louis. A vibrant community has grown at St. Francis de Sales
since the institute arrived almost two years ago, attendance increasing from 300
to nearly 800 each Sunday.Here the Classical Latin Mass is
offered every day, and twice on Sundays, along with several traditional Catholic
devotions throughout the week.
Unlike what many would think, the
Traditional Latin rite is not a subject of nostalgia. Anyone attending one of
the now hundreds of churches in the United States where the Latin Mass is
celebrated, will immediately note the youthfulness of the congregation, and the
vibrancy of the community. Young adults and young large families with many
children skew the average age to the mid-40s if not lower. The reverence,
beauty, timelessness, and transcendence of the venerable rite are often cited as
the points of attraction.
And it is the general experience of
the clergy who celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass that their congregations are
growing very steadily. All the churches staffed by the Institute of Christ the
King demonstrate this phenomenon, St. Francis de Sales Oratory in
St. Louis
being a particularly striking example, where the congregation has nearly tripled
in size in two years.
The Institute of Christ the King Sovereign
Priest itself is evidence of this growth factor. It was founded in 1990 by two
French priests, Msgr. Gilles Wach and Fr. Philippe Mora, who sought to establish
a seminary that would train young men for the priesthood desiring to be formed
and educated in the tradition of the Catholic Church — theological as well as
liturgical.
While at first established as a mission
seminary in Gabon, Africa, in a matter of months the institute was invited by
the archbishop of Florence, Italy, to relocate to the village of Gricigliano in
his archdiocese. Two heiresses had left property to the Archdiocese of Florence
to be used by any Catholic order or community dedicated to the Traditional
LatinMass. It was to in this property,
the Villa Martelli in Gricigliano, that the institute established its
motherhouse and seminary.
After only 16 years the Institute of Christ
the King now has more than 50 priests stationed in over 40 locations in Europe,
Africa, and the United States, where all the sacraments of the Church are
offered in the Traditional Latin rite. In the United States the institute is
present in Chicago, Rockford, St. Louis, Kansas City, Green Bay, Wausau, Oakland, and Santa Clara. It receives
several inquiries on a weekly basis from young men who wish to become priests in
the institute. As its seminary formation program is nearly filled to capacity
with 70 men at the different stages of preparation for the priesthood, the
superiors of the Institute of Christ the King have the rare problem of having
too many aspirants to their seminary.
The ceremony on June 15, at the Cathedral
Basilica of St. Louis will mark the first time that priests of the Institute of
Christ the King are ordained in the United States. Usually, the Ordinations take
place at theft seminary in Florence. Members of the institute will be
providing the Gregorian chant and filling the several liturgical roles of the
intricate and strikingly beautiful Ordination ceremony and Pontifical Solemn
High Mass.
Fr. Karl Lenhardt, rector of St. Francis de
Sales Oratory operated by the Institute of Christ
the King, commented: “All the members of the institute and faithful who attend
our several churches around the country are very much looking forward to this
special event. We are especially grateful to His Grace, Archbishop Raymond
Burke, for having the ceremony at his own cathedral basilica, and above all for
his kindness to the institute throughout so many years.”
"Jesus is not
pleased with the manner in which His clergy are carrying out their vocations,
and, also, the Mass. Jesus wishes that the Old Mass be returned to wipe
out many of the errors that have crept in since the New Mass has started.”

Note: Our Lady of the Roses
dictated to Veronica a message to be given to Pope Paul VI on September 1, 1969,
just three weeks before Cardinals Ottaviani and Bacci delivered their letter,
now known as the "The Ottaviani Intervention," to
Pope Paul VI. Our Lady warned Pope Paul VI that he had been "innocently
misled to not visualize the destruction to souls wrought by the revision and
acts of sacrifice left to the free conscience of the human soul." (Read

children, I ask you again to place a crucifix upon your door. Both front and
back doors must have a crucifix. I say this to you because there will be carnage
within your areas, and this will pass you by if you keep your crucifix upon your
doors." (6-30-84)

to the doors when the aluminum strap is removed from the back. Put a light coat
of cement on the back of the crucifix and then press it to the outside of the
door. If you have any problems, you can call us at 616-698-6448 for assistance.

Our Lady of the Roses, Mary Help of Mothers promises to
help protect our children. On September 13, 1977, She said, "He has an army of
ogres wandering now throughout your country and all of the countries of the
world. They are in possession of great power; so wear your sacramentals, and
protect your children and your households. Learn the use every day of holy water
throughout your household. Insist even with obstructions, insist that your
children always wear a sacramental. One day they will understand that they will
repel the demons."
On February 1, 1974, Our Lady said, "My children, know the value of these
sacramentals. Guard your children well. You must awaken to the knowledge that
you will not be protected without the sacramentals. Guard your children's souls.
They must be surrounded with an aura of purity. Remove them if necessary from
the sources of contamination, be it your schools or even false pastors."
