"Fair enough. So do you consider Father Maniyangat a modernist? Whatever that means."

For a definition of Modernism, see Blessed Pius IX's "Syllabus of Errors" or Pope St. Pius X's "Pascendi", then visit Fr. Maniyangat's website at the link at top and you tell me. "Eucharistic services" led by laymen? People fainting in church during Pentecostal-type healing services? Red flags go up when one hears of such events taking place.

I’m familiar with these documents and I see nothing contrary to Catholic teaching at this Parish.

"Eucharistic services" led by laymen?

Didn’t see this however under certain conditions a layman may publicly expose and later repose the eucharist for the adoration of the faithful. See "Eucharistiae Sacramentum"

On this point we agree. As I posted earlier, worst case is I’ll have a 100 mile round trip to fulfill my Mass obligation. At best, there may be something here.
