Vitus Huonder, 81, retired Chur Bishop (ordained a Novus Ordo bishop in 2007), consecrated the church of the Society of St. Pius X in the Swiss border town of Oberriet, on November 18.

Oberriet is one of the largest PiusX [SSPX] priories in the German-speaking world. Many of the faithful come from neighbouring Austria. The priory was founded in 1978 in a machine room of a former rubber factory.

The church has three altars and seats 300 people.

As one commenter to the above article adroitly asked, "Has this bishop renounced the Novus Ordo heresy and has a valid episcopal consecration?"

As previously written here on The Catacombs:

"But when a Conciliar bishop, known to be a personal friend of a great modernist like Pope Francis, "retires" to live amongst traditionalists, as Bishop Huonder did in 2019 when he retired to live with the SSPX in Switzerland, this leaves one questioning if such an action is as innocent at it seems? 

"Archbishop Lefebvre repeatedly warned that the goal of modernist Rome was to re-absorb the traditional groups. They have done this many times already, with Fraternity of St. Peter, Institute of Christ the King, etc.:
Quote:Upon reflection, it appears clear that the goal of these dialogues is to reabsorb us within the Conciliar Church, the only Church to which you make allusion during these meetings.” (Letter of Archbishop Lefebvre to Cardinal Ratzinger, May 24, 1988)

"It is of paramount importance to note that this Conciliar Bishop Huonder has yet to formally renounce his Conciliar beliefs, as Archbishop Viganò has done many times, for example (see here and  here). Bishop Huonder did not come to the SSPX as a traditionalist, he came as a Conciliarist. When Bishop Lazo came to the SSPX in the 1990's, he fully converted to Tradition. (See #27 here). When Bishop Huonder arrived at the SSPX, it was with Pope Francis' express permission and without an abandonment of the errors of the Second Vatican Council. The phrases, Trojan Horse and Wolf in Sheep's Clothing, come to mind."

A few words from Archbishop Lefebvre, founder of the SSPX, on how the Modernists cannot be trusted until there is a full conversion back to tradition:
  • When they say they [Dom Gerard and the Fraternity of St. Peter/Indult groups] don’t have to give anything up, that’s false. They have given up the ability to oppose Rome. They cannot say anything anymore. They must remain silent given the favours that have been granted them. It is now impossible for them to expose the errors of the Conciliar Church. Softly, softly they adhere, even be it only by their Profession of Faith that is requested by Cardinal Ratzinger. I think Dom Gérard is about to publish a small book written by one of his monks on Religious Liberty and which will try to justify it. From the point of view of ideas, they begin to slide ever so slowly and end up by admitting the false ideas of the Council, because Rome has granted them some favours of Tradition. It’s a very dangerous situation” (Fideliter No. 79, January-February 1991)
  • “The bishops concerned - the supposedly conservative bishops - are wholly supportive of the Council and of the post-Conciliar reforms, of ecumenism and of the charismatic movement. Apparently, they are being a little more moderate and showing slightly more traditional religious sentiment, but it does not go deep. The great fundamental principles of the Council, the errors of the Council, they accept them and put them into practice. That is no problem for them. On the contrary, I would go so far as to say that it is these conservative bishops who treat us the worst. It is they who would the most insistently demand that we submit to the principles of the Council.” (One Year After the Consecrations, July-August, 1989)
  • For them there is no question of abandoning the New Mass. On the contrary. That is obvious. That is why what can look like a concession is in reality merely a maneuver to separate us from the largest number of faithful possible. This is the perspective in which they seem to be always giving a little more and even going very far. We must absolutely convince our faithful that it is no more than a maneuver, that it is dangerous to put oneself into the hands of Conciliar bishops and Modernist Rome. It is the greatest danger threatening our people. If we have struggled for twenty years to avoid the Conciliar errors, it was not in order, now, to put ourselves in the hands of those professing these errors.” (One Year After the Consecrations, July-August, 1989)
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
