District Newsletter

It's been 45 years since Archbishop Lefebvre founded the Society of St. Pius X and over 40 years since he opened the seminary in Armada, Michigan to preserve and reestablish the traditional Latin Mass here in the United States.

The travels of Archbishop Lefebvre in the United States after the Council were motivated by his Faith in the immortal Church and his mission to save the Catholic priesthood.

When he founded the Society, Archbishop Lefebvre already had a depth of experience in missions and dioceses.
