The recent death of Bishop Bernard Tissier de Mallerais (FSSPX) raises the question that "everyone" is asking, said Don Gabriele D'Avino, the new Italian District Superior of the Fraternity, in an interview on November 30 (video).
The question is: When will the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X consecrated new bishops: "The answer is certain, is unequivocal: Yes, the Fraternity will consecrate more bishops," he said.
The current situation is "worse" than in 1988, when Archbishop Lefebvre consecrated four bishops without a papal mandate: "If in 1988 it was necessary to safeguard the Catholic priesthood by continuing the work of formation and therefore the ordination of priests, today it is even more necessary."
On the question of when, Don D'Avino added that it was not up to him to decide, but up to the superiors: "The Fraternity will make these ordinations and we expect them soon."
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
