Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP) Announces the closing of St. Gregory’s Academy

As you may have heard, the Fraternity has decided to close down St. Gregory’s Academy.  The Fraternity has not made it clear in their statement their purpose for doing this.  This blog post contains the statement made by Fr.
