An official Apostolate of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter has been established in the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend with the full permission of His Excellency Bishop John Michael D’Arcy.
A warm thank you to our spiritual father in the faith, Bishop D’Arcy, and to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter.Fr. George Gabet of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, the newly appointed chaplain of the Saint Mother Theodore Guerin Latin Mass Community, former superior of the FSSP North American District, and native son of Fort Wayne, will offer the Traditional Latin Mass at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in South Bend, Indiana, this Sunday, March 2nd.
Mass will be at the usual time, 7am. There will be coffee and a pot-luck breakfast after Mass, and there will be an opportunity to shake Father's hand and chit-chat.
More details regarding the Latin Mass Community is pending.
“What strength the soul draws from prayer! In the midst of a storm, how sweet is the calm it finds in the heart of Jesus.”
-- Saint Mother Theodore Guerin

Have you heard anything about the location of the chaplaincy in Fort Wayne? Will it remain at Sacred Heart?
I haven't heard anything regarding the location in Fort Wayne. I like Sacred Heart church, personally. I wonder how attached the people in Fort Wayne are to Sacred Heart.
It is a nice church, though there are (I think) better close by. I haven't the slightest clue what the parishioners there think since, despite having my permanent address in Fort Wayne, I spend no more than two months out of the year there.
Has anyone seen a copy of the Bishop's letter authorising the Chaplaincy? It would be very useful for us in Ireland. You can contact me at lepanto@catholic.org. God bless, Thomas
This is wonderful news. Thank you Bishop D'Arcy. Now perhaps we can we get some coverage in the southern reaches of the diocese.
Laus Deo! Greetings from TLM in Maryland!
When I read the FSSP newsletter yesterday they announced two new apostolates, I wonder what the other one is?
"When I read the FSSP newsletter yesterday they announced two new apostolates, I wonder what the other one is?"
The new apostolate will be for us!!!
Nothing official has been announced, so I was asked to hold my tongue, but I can tell you it is also in the midwest. We have been a virtual desert as far as the Tridentine Mass goes.
Gee, thanks a lot anonymous! Now I'm going to be eaten up by speculation!
Let us as know as soon you can.
My guess is the Diocese of Joliet, IL. That diocese has been a desert in more than one way.
It's a secret, but I know it to be true.
