Fraternity Publications offers a variety of materials that enable the priest or seminarian to introduce themselves to offering the Extraordinary Form, also known as the traditional Latin Mass.

From training DVDs to altar missals, a wide variety of books on the rites and ceremonies, response cards and rubrics for servers, and more. An easy way to begin is to order our 2-DVD set that teaches how to say Low Mass.

Review and Order Training Materials

The Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, in collaboration with Una Voce America and the William C. Meier Foundation, is the largest provider of training resources and materials for priests who wish to learn the Traditional Latin Mass, also known as the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.

In response to the generousity of Pope Benedict XVI in his apostolic letter Summorum Pontificum, the FSSP established this program in 2007.  Thusfar we have provided personal training for over 165 priests from 115 different dioceses, and over 80% of participants in this program are now saying the traditional Roman rite on a regular basis.

Our five-day training workshops are held at the seminary in Denton, Nebraska. Please visit the training website for a listing of upcoming workshops and more details.

On Saturday, May 28, 2016, four deacons of the Fraternity of St. Peter were ordained priests by the Most Reverend Fabian Bruskewitz, at Saint Cecilia Cathedral in Omaha, Nebraska.

Our gratitude and thanks to His Excellency, Bishop Emeritus of Lincoln, for ordaining these men to the Holy Priesthood. Congratulations to our new priests and their families, and thanks to all our benefactors and friends who have supported these men and the Seminary during the course of their studies, with prayers and other assistance.

As each new priest has asked, and we always recommend, please in your kindness continue to pray for them and all of the priests of the Fraternity.

The newly ordained priests are:

• Fr. Edward Brodsky
• Fr. Joshua Houck
• Fr. Christopher Mahowald
• Fr. Dominic Savoie

Images of this glorious day will be posted soon.

The Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter is pleased to announce that the Most Reverend Peter A. Labasci, Bishop of Manchester, has invited the FSSP into the diocese in order to administer the parish of St. Stanislaus in Nashua, New Hampshire.  His Excellency noted:

“Since coming here in 2011, I have heard from many Catholics who have a deep affection for the traditional liturgical forms of the pre-Vatican II era. Consistent with that desire, I am happy to announce the opening of this parish, dedicated to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass, as suggested by Pope Benedict XVI in his Apostolic Letter Summorum Pontificum, issued Motu Proprio in 2007.”

The Fraternity is grateful to Bishop Labasci for this opportunity, and look forward to providing for the spiritual needs of the Diocese by means of the traditional Roman Sacraments.

Please, in your kindness, keep the Fraternity and the parishioners of St. Stanislaus in your prayers now that the apostolate begun.

The announcement that the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter will be assuming pastoral responsibility for St. Stephen was made at the parish on the Feast of Pentecost, May 15, 2016, prior to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.  The members of the parish are very excited to welcome the FSSP to their parish, and are deeply thankful for the priests of the Diocese of Allentown who have offered the Traditional Latin Mass at St. Stephen’s over the years, as well as all those who have prayed and sacrificed for the FSSP to be invited into the diocese.

The Fraternity is grateful to the Most Reverend John O. Barres, Bishop of Allentown, and his priestly assistants of the chancery for this opportunity.

Please, in your kindness, keep the Fraternity and the parishioners of St. Stephen’s in your prayers as the apostolate begins in July.
