Requiem aeternam dona ei Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.


In your charity, please pray for the soul of Bishop Vitus Huonder who passed away today, April 3, 2024. 

Bp. Huonder was a Novus Ordo priest and bishop who spent the last several years in Swiss and German SSPX priories and schools. His Novus Ordo training, ordination, and consecration caused much consternation in traditional circles, where there was uncertainty considering the validity of the Sacraments his administered, the Holy Oils he consecrated, and most recently, the SSPX Priory he consecrated. 

But even prior to these issues, he noted that he joined the SSPX as the request of Rome/Pope Francis [January 2015]. "... he [Bp. Huonder] frankly admits: «I fulfilled this mandate [of Holy See], and I'm still filling it out.»  This is clear: Mgr Huonder works, even today, the integration of the Brotherhood into the Conciliary Church..." [taken from here]. 

May all these concerns be now laid to rest. And may his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace.  Amen.

The De Profundis  - Psalm 129

Out of the depths I have cried unto Thee, O Lord; Lord, hear my voice.
Let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
If Thou, O Lord, shalt mark our iniquities: O Lord, who can abide it?
For with Thee there is mercy: and by reason of Thy law I have waited on Thee, O Lord.
My soul hath waited on His word: my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
From the morning watch even unto night: let Israel hope in the Lord.
For with the Lord there is mercy: and with Him is plenteous redemption.
And He shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord And let perpetual light shine upon him.
