- "All you wops get off the lawn!"

On the occasion of the 25th anniversary
of the foundation of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter
Pope Francis joins the thanksgiving of her members for the work accomplished in this quarter-century spent at the service of ecclesial communion cum Petro et sub Petro.
It was in a moment of great trial for the Church that the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter was created. In a great spirit of obedience and hope, her founders turned with confidence to the Successor of Peter in order to offer the faithful attached to the Missal of 1962 the possibility of living their faith in the full communion of the Church. The Holy Father encourages them to pursue their mission of reconciliation between all the faithful, whichever may be their sensibility, and this to work so that all welcome one another in the profession of the same faith and the bond of an intense fraternal charity.
By way of the celebration of the sacred Mysteries according to the extraordinary form of the Roman rite and the orientations of the Constitution on the Liturgy Sacrosanctum Concilium, as well as by passing on the apostolic faith as it is presented in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, may they contribute, in fidelity to the living Tradition of the Church, to a better comprehension and implementation of the Second Vatican Council.

Did you forget your sarcasm tag?
I don’t think the Pope would speak like that.
There is no lawn there. Perhaps you need to check out Vatican websites to see.
And the Italian contingent in the FSSP is fairly weak.
Maybe what he is really saying is: “Hey, all you homos! Who wants to be a priest?”
No thank you.
