SSPX to review Vatican document for reconciliation in October

Leaders of the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) will meet in Albano, Italy, on October 7 and 8 to review a document that the Vatican has asked the breakaway traditionalist group to affirm. 

A “Doctrinal Preamble” was given to the SSPX leader, Bishop Bernard Fellay, by Cardinal William Levada, the prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, at a meeting in Rome on September 14. 

The Vatican described the document as “the fundamental basis for achieving full reconciliation with the Apostolic See.”
