Dear Friend,

The Polish National Catholic Church has also been referred to as the National Catholic Church.

Hi Jeff!!

They are right. I am NOT talking about the PNCC. Its a different branch that allows the LGBT community to be priests.

I was thinking of the PNCC as well. But the group being disscussed seems to be invalid,as well as schismatic.

I used to have a link to "independent and old “catholic” churches, and their are literally thousands of them.

This NCC is anything but national, consisting of a few parishes in just Florida. Others are even smaller, some with just a lone bishop with his garage as his cathedral. But they all make big efforts to prove their “apsotolic succesion”.

Just as a lark I went to one once. The cathedral was a bedroom in the apartment and their was one bishop, on preist, and a deacon. I was one of the only 2 congregregants present.

Not quite.

If the priest in question was validly ordained, his Masses would be valid, but illict, i.e. Transubstantiation really does happen, but the priest sins by offering the Mass illicitly. Baptisms would likewise be valid, since anyone can baptize, as long as the correct formula was used.

Any confessions or weddings would be invalid, b/c the priest in question lacks valid faculties from a legitimate bishop., with the exception of confession of one in danger of death. Even a laicized priest can validly absolve the dying.

God Bless

Thanks!

Mrs. JillianRose,
