On the occasion of the 25th anniversary<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
of the foundation of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Pope Francis joins the thanksgiving of her members for the work accomplished in this quarter-century spent at the service of ecclesial communion cum Petro et sub Petro.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
It was in a moment of great trial for the Church that the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter was created. In a great spirit of obedience and hope, her founders turned with confidence to the Successor of Peter in order to offer the faithful attached to the Missal of 1962 the possibility of living their faith in the full communion of the Church. The Holy Father encourages them to pursue their mission of reconciliation between all the faithful, whichever may be their sensibility, and this to work so that all welcome one another in the profession of the same faith and the bond of an intense fraternal charity.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
By way of the celebration of the sacred Mysteries according to the extraordinary form of the Roman rite and the orientations of the Constitution on the Liturgy\u00a0Sacrosanctum Concilium, as well as by passing on the apostolic faith as it is presented in the\u00a0Catechism of the Catholic Church, may they contribute,\u00a0in fidelity to the living Tradition of the Church, to a better comprehension and implementation of the Second Vatican Council.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
The Holy Father exhorts them, according to their own charism<\/strong>, to take an active part in the mission of the Church in the world of today, through the testimony of a holy life, a firm faith and an inventive and generous charity.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Entrusting to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary and of Saint Peter, apostle, all the pilgrims assembled in Lourdes or at the\u00a0church of Saint-Sulpice in Paris<\/a><\/b>\u00a0to give thanks to the Lord on this occasion, the Holy Father grants them with open heart the Apostolic Benediction.<\/span><\/div>\n
