Old Ritual Dominicans in Rome -- Procession Into Saint Peter's Under the Eyes of the Cardinals

Pilgrimage of Old Ritual Dominicans With Graduates in
the Archbasilica in Rome
(Rome) On the 40th anniversary of their order, the  Dominican Sisters of Fanjeaux are making a pilgrimage to Rome at the mother of all churches and the grave of Peter. The School Sisters of the Mother House in France in the Languedoc Fanjeaux (Aude) serves eight girls' schools. Six schools are located in France, one in the US and since 2012, one in the Federal Republic of Germany, near Freiburg im Breisgau.
The pilgrims included more than 1,500 people, including over 200 nuns, teachers and graduates of their schools, who  were distinguished by their blue Basque berets. The first stage of the pilgrimage was last Tuesday at the Archbasilica San Giovanni in Laterano omnium urbis et orbis mater et caput ecclesiarum (mother and head of all churches of Rome and of the earth). The Lateran Basilica is the highest ranking among the four patriarchal churches and the cathedral of  the pope. There, the pilgrims sang the Creed, and prayed the Way of the Cross for the pope. In the morning they had participated a Mass  celebrated by Father Niklaus Pfluger. Father Pfluger is the first assistant to the Society of St. Pius X.

Ceremonial Entry in the Vatican Basilica Under the Eyes of Cardinals

The School Sisters Visiting the Patriarchal Basilica
On Thursday, the traditional pilgrims, sisters, girls and women moved in solemn order into St. Peter's Basilica to visit the grave of the Apostle Peter. An "impressive event under the eyes of the Cardinals just gathering for the Consistory, an improvement standing out from the otherwise hectic crowd of pilgrims and tourists stood out" as Chiesa e postconcilio reported.
According to Forum Catholique, despite repeated requests to the Pontifical Commission of Ecclesia Dei  by the pilgrims,  ​​no church was made available to celebrate the Holy Mass in the traditional rite in the city of Rome. It's a de facto ban that has allegedly, according to the French side, to do with the fact that the Holy Masses by priests of the SSPX had to be  celebrated to ensure the pastoral care of the Dominican Sisters for 40 years. Father Pfluger had to celebrate the Holy Mass in the church reach Rome in a rented hall.

No Church of Rome for the Sacrifice of the Mass and a Small Episode

Prayer of the Lateran Basilica, the 'head and the mother of all churches "
Prayer in the Lateran Basilica, the "head and the mother of all churches"
In the Holy Year, the SSPX had made ​​a pilgrimage to Rome with fellow religious and faithful. The pilgrimage drew "a solemn calm, and majestic dignity" in St. Peter's Basilica, Paolo Pasqualucci, who was then among the faithful at St. Peter's Square, as postconcilio Chiesa e reported. "Three young men of the uniformed police of the Vatican security service stood by. The latter were visibly upset at the sight of the procession of the SSPX, who moved toward St. Peter's Basilica. Probably they had been forewarned, since these  very bad heretics and enemies of the Pope were coming. The policeman watched a passing priest earnestly.  Then he turned and said to the young men from the security service in Roman dialect, 'This is the true Church and not that there'  and made ​​pointed with  his head in a movement toward the Vatican palaces. Twice he repeated it still,  while the priests, religious and faithful moved into St. Peter's."

    3. The French Church was rotting, but it was hard put by everywhere in Europe.

  5. But I would want further reassurance on what has been asserted about the relatively empty square. The camera angle is from afar - but, also, I'd want to see comparable weekday photos of crowds at Wednesday papal audiences for winter's days in February to make a true and fair evaluation of Rorate Caeli's assertion that there has been a collapse in the numbers going to see Pope Francis. - Tony from Oz

  6. Oh - and by the way - Eponymous Flower - as much as I enjoy your blog - would it be possible for you to consider using a larger font size than the present tiny one. It's doing my eyes in!

    1. if you press and hold the "ctrl" button, then press the "=" ("+" on some keyboards) key next to "delete" repeatedly it makes the text larger, doing the same with "-" key next to "=" makes it smaller :)

  7. It was an opportunity lost for the Faith when the SSPX did not return to Rome when Pope Benedict offered repeated opportunities. It was the main aim of his pontificate, sadly wasted.

    1. Actually the deal was torpedoed by the people who ushered +Bergoglio in when they offered an agreement for signing that wasn't what they'd agreed to.

      Maybe it's just you, but most people wouldn't sign an agreement or trust a party that changed the terms of their agreement midstream.

      I think the change of agreement really showed a change in administration following Wikileaks, but never mind that.
