Speaking of that archdiocese, the most recent issue of Inside the Vatican has an article about St. Alphonsus and the indult community. The question is asked concerning its future, since the pastor is getting up there in age.

Well, first of all, I wouldn't include St. Alphonsus in the liturgical abuse presence, but you could go to just about any suburban (Baltimore County et al.) parish, and have your fill of abuses.

Secondly, the Indult at St. A is very far from ideal for many reasons which I have noted in the past, part being the fact the future is unknown. The pastor is, I think, 79 and the other priest who says the TLM there is even older...at least 82/83. Cardinal Keeler is dead set against the FSSP coming in, but he turns 75 next year if that is any consolation.

Can you post me a link to that article?
