Fr. Couture (presently District Superior of Canada) asked that this consecration be on July 2nd. It is similar to the consecration performed by the Bishops of Canada in 1947.

Until this moment I did not know that the Bishops of Canada had performed such a consecration.

It makes me wonder what it would be like if they had not done the consecration!

CONSECRATION OF CANADA AND THE MINISTRY OF THE PRIESTS OF THE SOCIETY OF SAINT PIUS X TO THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS AND THE IMMACULATE HEART OF
MARY


O Jesus,Who didst ask at Fatima that devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary be
established throughout the world, in order to save poor sinners from the fires of hell, behold
we come today, the priests of the Society of Saint Pius X, in union with all our faithful
people, to renew the consecration of Canada and of our ministry to the Immaculate Heart of
Mary.
Humbly prostrate before Thine altar, we adore Thee in the Blessed Sacrament, and venerate
the admirable privilege granted to Thy Holy Mother, by which Her most pure Soul was
preserved from original sin, in order to become the refuge of sinners and “the way that will
lead them to God”.
O Jesus, Thou hast instructed us through the vision of Saint John Bosco, in which he saw the
Church attacked from every side, but saved by the Blessed Sacrament and the Immaculate
Conception of Our Lady. Thou hast instructed us also through the vision of Sister Lucy, in
which she was permitted to contemplate the Blessed Trinity, the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
and Thy Holy Sacrifice of Calvary, renewed on our altars, the infinite source of grace and
mercy. So it is, O Jesus, One and only True God, that in this storm which is shaking the
Church and the world, Thou hast given us as the ark of salvation, the Immaculate Heart of
Mary and the incomparable treasure of the Blessed Eucharist.
Consequently, in the Presence of the Sacrament of Thy Love, with the utmost confidence of
being heard, we consecrate again Canada, our families and the ministry of the priests of the
Society of Saint Pius X to Thy Eucharistic Heart and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.We
beseech Thee, O Sacred Heart of Jesus and Thee, O Immaculate Heart of Mary, to deign to
receive this consecration of our country so that, protected by Thine assistance from the
dangers which threaten it and enlightened by the Truths of ThyWisdom, Canada may
become once more a land of predilection, where love of Thy Holy Name and respect for Thy
law will reign again, in conformity with the truth of Thy Sovereign Royalty, for which our
first missionaries gave their lives.
Accept also this consecration of our families which, with all our heart, we make to Thee so
that, forever safe in the burning furnace of Thy Charity, O Sacred Heart of Jesus, and in the
refuge of Thy Heart, which is the refuge of all sinners, O Immaculate Heart of Mary, touched
by so much mercy and grace, Thy children may live henceforth only for Thee, in Thy Church,
and in obedience to Thy commandments, and may thus all, one day, come safely to Heaven to
“sing forever Thy glories and Thy blessings”.
Finally, we ask Thee to receive this consecration of our Society of Saint Pius X, established in
Canada, so that, faithful to the mission which has been confided to it, it may work with all its
strength for the coming of the Kingdom of Christ, the King, and for the triumph of the
Immaculate Heart of Mary, in this great land which the Church as placed under the patronage
of Saint Joseph and the Canadian Martyrs. Taught by the example of our venerated Founder,
Archbishop Lefebvre, we renew today the consecration of our priests, our seminarians, our
religious, the members of our third order and all our spiritual family to the Hearts of Jesus and
Mary.
We offer to Thee and we consecrate to Thee, O Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, our goods,
our houses, all the Faithful who are confided to us and all the labours of our ministry, asking
Thee to keep us ever steadfastly attached to the Catholic Church, our Mother, and to protect us
always from error and from sin, so that united forever in the love of Thy divine Hearts, we may
give Thee glory and praise Thee with all the angels and saints, throughout all ages of eternity.
Amen.

SSPX and the Resistance - A Comparison Of Ecclesiology

By
Shining the light of Church Teaching on the doctrinal positions of the SSPX and the Resistance. Principles are guides used to aid in decision making.  It stands to reason that bad principles will lead to bad decisions. The recent interactions between Rome and the SSPX has challenged a number of closely held cultural assumptions of people in both sides of the disagreement. This has resulted in cultural skirmishes in both Rome and the SSPX. Since it is the smaller of the two, the skirmishes have been more evident within the SSPX.  The cultural fault-line that Bishop Fellay crossed appears to be linked to two points of Catholic Doctrine: Ecclesiology and Obedience.  The cultural difference of view points is strong enough that it has resulted in the expulsion of a number of members.  It should also be noted that some other priests expelled since the beginning of the latest interactions (starting in 2000) held the same view points and have joined with the l...

Morning and Evening and other sundry Prayers

By
+ JMJ Along the theme of P^3 (Prayer, Penance, Patience), and for my own reference ... here is a collection of Morning and Evening prayers from the Ideal Daily Missal along with some additional prayers. In this crisis of the Church, I do not think it is possible to do too much prayer, penance and have patience. P^3

Church Militant TV and the SSPX - Again

By
+ JMJ The old narrative used to be that the SSPX was 'schismatic' and 'excommunicated'. Now the excommunication has been lifted for a number of years and the only ones who think it still has effect are the 'resistors'. That leaves the other opponents of the SSPX with the label 'schismatic'. Make it clear, the conservative Catholics have issues with the SSPX probably because they violate some of their assumptions about the Faith and this crisis of the Church. Church Militant TV is one of these the exists along the Catholic thought spectrum. They like the Traditional Mass but must ensure that they don't get tarred with the same 'schismatic' brush that the liberals use against the SSPX.  So what do they do, they use the same brush against the SSPX. The funny thing is that even when the Church does speak, they don't want to listen and persist in calling the SSPX 'schismatic'. Here's a transcript of the latest s...

The Curious Case of Steve Skojec and the Dangers of Deep Diving into the Crisis Sub-Titled: The Failings of Others

By
 + JMJ It's been a while now since Steve Skojec sold 1P5 and abandoned the Catholic Faith. I've been a 'Trad' since 1982 and in those 40+ years I seen this death-spiral before with a similar end point. It seems that anyone who jumps into the fray unprepared for the enormous task of righting wrongs will, eventually, become discouraged by not the task but the people who surround them.   I remember when Skojec complained of the treatment his family received from a traditional priest.  This seems to have been the start of the end for him. So what can we learn from the likes of Steve Skojec, Michael Voris (maybe?), Louie Verrecchio, Gerry Matatix and other celebrity Catholics? Probably quite a lot about what not to do. First, don't burn out on the crisis?  When you burn out, on work or anything else, little things assume a more greater importance than they are due.   This is one of my 'canary in the coal mine' signals that I've been stretching myself too th...

The Position of the SSPX on Canonizations by the Saint Factory

By
+ JMJ I have sometimes been criticized for including 'St' as a title for Pope John Paul II et al. I've given my reasons here  in a discussion with Alex Long. The question is one of prudence in discussions with ntCatholics and in some cases with tCatholics. In discussions with:  ntCatholics, I will use the title in order to continue the discussion and help them arrive at a realistic understanding of the crisis of the Church. tCatholics, I will use the title in order to broaden their perspective on the doctrine of dogmatic facts. This broader perspective is, in my opinion, essential maintaining a realistic understanding of the crisis of the Church. So from a doctrinal position, I have written the article Dogmatic Fact of Fancy  and includes a reference on canonizations. Now, I know the position of the SSPX is that the canonizations are doubtful (see references below) and I also know of at least one non-SSPX theologian who agrees with the level of doubt du...
