According to a June 19 report published by Tribune Chrétienne, the Vatican is reportedly preparing a document in light of the coming Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) episcopal consecrations, that will not only see its clergy and leadership being designated schismatic (and therefor excommunicated), but also potentially the faithful who regularly attend its chapels.This will come as a shock for the many Catholics who assist at SSPX Masses, who expected that only the bishops involved in the consecration would be excommunicated.According to sources cited by Tribune Chrétienne, discussions in apostate Rome are no longer focused solely on the Society’s leadership. The proposed document could reportedly affect the entire structure of the SSPX, including its approximately 700 priests, seminaries, apostolates, and even the faithful who regularly participate in its sacramental life.
