Ordinations to Traditional Orders

Worldwide, a total of 24 priests are being ordained this summer to Orders of priests that exclusively celebrate Mass in the Extraordinary Form.  The breakdown is as follows:


Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter:   16

Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest:   7

Institute of the Good Shepherd:  1

In addition, the SSPX are ordaining 13, and there may be others.  Going by the numbers of students in their seminaries, it is likely that the number of ordinations in traditional Orders of priests will increase in the years to come.
