I am looking into a certain traditional order of nuns. They operate in full Communion with the Pope, however this order has also been on record as supporting Una Voce.

Other than the Una Voce thing this order seems okay. Should I just overlook the connection to Una Voce?

I don’t assume that the Nuns are required to directly support Una Voce.

GoLatin…would you want me to add your name to the list of people who are thinking of entering the religious for prayers. We have a thread here in Spirituality that prays the Rosary for Priests/Seminarians/Vocations/ It would be an honor to do so!🙂
 
Maybe I’m missing something, but as far as I know, there is nothing wrong with Una Voce.
 
Absolutely no issue. Una Voce is fully loyal to Rome and the Holy Father and is doing wonderful working ensuring that the traditional latin mass is preserved and its availability expanded to the Catholic faithful.

However? Other that Una Voce they are okay?

What kinds of things do you think Una Voce supports? UV is about as solidly Catholic as they come. Loyal to Rome and in support of beautiful, licit, Masses.

Have you ever heard of the late Michael Davies? He was the former head of Una Voce International. Not long before he(Mr Davies) died, he publicly called the late Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre a saint.

Of course, I certainly hope that both Mr Davies and Archbishop Lefebvre are in Heaven(or Purgatory). I don’t want to condemn anyone to Hell.
 
If you knock the URL link to just

institute-christ-king.org/

You will find that the Institute of Christ the King does its work in some very orthodox places. They have been welcome with Diocese of Rockford for years. They tend to ask to be given the care of churches that are traditional in architecture, yet closing, but within the means of the Institute to repair. They did a great job on St. Mary’s Oratory in Rockford, but had less success with St. Mary’s in Aurora, a church of similar architecture and situation.

http://www.rockforddiocese.org/search/details.asp?ID=10

So, St. Mary’s has reverted back to a “regular” diocesan parish, and its campus also houses the deanery’s religious ed. training programs.

Recently (a year maybe?), Cardinal George consented to have the Institute rehab St. Gelasius near the University of Chicago.

http://www.institute-christ-king.org/ChicagoChurch.htm

The Institute promotes the traditional forms of liturgy, and uses the 1962 ritual. More importantly, the people involved, religious and laity, seem sincerely charitable. And most of you know I am not a fan of the Latin Mass, so this has to be some kind of charity these folks exhibit.

So, I would imagine any order of nuns affiliated with the Institute was A-OK with Rome.
 
I have no access to a Latin Mass and would not care to go schismatic…but I am a member of Una Voce for I do love the Latin Mass and though it all Catholics do indeed worship with One Voice! My bishop does not allow the Latin Mass but after he retires in 2 years, I hope the next one will allow it for I long for a holy, reverent offering of the Holy Sacrifice. I mean I still love Mass and Holy Communion but the liturgical abuses bother me and the banal songs make me cringe sometimes as we sing about ourselves, etc. I get hungry for reverence.

Ave Maria!

ps–Una Voce is completely in line with the Holy Father

Just because the person who was once in charge of the group said something questionable doesn’t mean the entire group is bad.

You must not think too highly of the Dominicans then, do you?

“Any deep-rooted prejudice against others, such as homophobia or misogyny, would be grounds for rejecting a candidate for the priesthood, but not their sexual orientation.”

The formal Master General of the Dominicans does not think gays should be banned from the priesthood. But he does think that people who want to ban gays from the priesthood should be banned from the priesthood themselves.

Does that make the Dominicans as a whole not okay?

To this day, Una Voce admires Michael Davies.

Why would this suprise you? Una Voce is an organization of lat(name removed by moderator)hiles, and if it wasn’t for Lefebvre, we wouldn’t have any Latin liturgy in our current day.

I don’t know exactly the context that Davies used the term “saint”, but Republicans revere Reagan as a “saint”, of course in a secular kind of way as the patron and protagonist of the current conservative movement.

Archbishop Lefebvre went into schism. He should therefore not be admired.

I think you may be reading more into it than there actually is. I am also a member of Una Voce. I admire the late Archbishop for much of what he accomplished and stood for, yet I also rebuke him for causing much of the divisiveness within the traditionalist movement, and by placing his personal opinions over those of the Holy Father.

There is nothing wrong with admiring someone who someone is, regardless of their religious affilliation. There are many non-catholics that I admire as well.

Michael Davies was a wonderful and faithful man. He had his faults (like we all do), but you shouldn’t condemn a movement like Una Voce just because of one quote (possibly taken out of context) by one member during the past 40 years.

Even in our time, Padre Pio was supressed by his superiors. Yet today, we call him SAINT.

Actually you’re wrong in that regard. The entire Novus Ordo Mass is written in Latin and can be done in Latin with the readings in the vernacular. Lefebvre was a key player but far from the only one n the granting of the Indult for the Traditional Mass.

Many people apparently forget that Latin is still the official language of the Church and is frequently used in Novus Ordo.Masses even today
