The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X is facing renewed questions about its future leadership, as senior figures acknowledge that the ordination of new bishops will be necessary in the coming years.
Speaking on 8 December to the German outlet Corrigenda, Father Franz Schmidberger, former Superior General of the SSPX, said that discussions were under way but that no decisions had yet been taken. “It is being considered, but I cannot say when it will take place and how many bishops will actually be ordained,” he said.
