  • Fr. Rafael, O.S.B., has moved his Benedictine Monastery of San Jose to Guatemala to serve as a chaplain to two groups of sisters new to the Resistance:

    1. Franciscan Sisters of the Hearts of Jesus and Mary;
    2. Carmelite Sisters Our Lady of Solitude and Saint Joseph.

    The Franciscan Sisters were previously served by priests of the neo-SSPX.  The following is their website (not updated with recent events):

    You may learn more about this from Fr. Rafael in the sermon he gave on February 4, 2025, which may be found at the following link:

  • Fr. Rafael considers himself part of the Resistance even though he currently does not support any bishop.

  • Does Fr. Rafael get along with + Tomas Aquinas? Benedictines normally make a vow of "Stability" or something like it.
    Fr. Cyprian, Silver City, has been prior since 1991...Dunno if he still is. Same goes with + Tomas...1988?  IN NORMAL TIMES, Benedictines get their jurisdiction directly from Rome, so they are not subject to bishops...per se.

    From Our Lady of Guadalupe , Silver City, NM web page:

    ..."The faithful echo of this determined action would be heard again in our own day in the words of Archbishop Lefebvre, 'Without Monasteries, without religious consecrated to prayer, the Church will never be revived from the present crisis. ' "...
    Imo, 2 new convents is essentially good news. We are not living in normal times. " C'est la guerre! " +Williamson liked to say...Fr.J. Pheiffer preached long on this topic, and realize that the victory is already had.  Read also about the apparition of Pontmain France ...1871? The German general was BLOCKED by the Madonna at 9 p.m.. He ordered his troops to retreat...a miracle...? No one can defeat Our Lady of Hope! Please excuse the digression .
    Pray.

    Fr. Rafael holds that there is no bishop right now integrally faithful to the memory and mission of Archbishop Lefebvre.  That's my understanding.

    Thank you for that info. Sounds like an echo of another priest who started a seminary last Oct.  I think we should start a poll:  Who will be the next ""Leader"" of the resistants? , as +Williamson used to call us. He had a knack with words!
