Traditionalists' rosary: criticism of Rome and support for the Lefebvrists
A daily rosary at 10:00 pm has become the megaphone of a Catholic current that makes no secret of its discontent with the Vatican. Among the prayer intentions slips in the situation of the Society of Saint Pius X, whose episcopal consecrations are in the crosshairs. The publication, which ranges from videos of Lourdes to litanies, has devoted space to a statement from Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández demanding the suspension of those consecrations as a condition for dialogue.
The Society of Saint Pius X, in the eye of the storm
The dispute is not new. After decades of tensions, the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, headed by Cardinal Fernández, met with Superior General Davide Pagliarani. The result: a statement that, according to critics, humiliates the Lefebvrists and demands they cancel the consecrations planned for July 1. The rosary's promoters see it as one more gesture in a long chain of "partial concessions revoked" and silence in the face of doctrinal deviations in the Church.
Intentions that go beyond prayer
The rosary's list of intentions includes petitions for Pope Francis, for the defense of life, and for the protection of the Cross of the Valle de los Caídos (the Valley of the Fallen memorial in Spain). But it also prays for "Pope Leo" and for reparation for offenses against God, reflecting a traditionalist sensibility that clashes with the Church's current direction. The person leading the initiative pulls no punches: he calls Rome's stance "painful and outrageous."
At the time of writing, there is no official response from the FSSPX on whether they will suspend the consecrations. The rosary, meanwhile, keeps going.
