In the great bastion of Traditional practices in the Congregatio Solesmensis, the Abbey of Our Lady of Fontgombault (Notre-Dame de Fontgombault), in Indre (central France), the Bishop of Fréjus-Toulon, Dominique Rey, ordained one of his seminarians to the major order of the Diaconate, according to the Traditional Pontificale Romanum. The new Deacon was formed in Fontgombault.
As Riposte Catholique recalls, it is the fourth time a diocesan seminarian of Fréjus-Toulon is introduced to the major Orders by way of the Traditional rites of Holy Orders by Bp. Rey.
