The Confraternity of St. Peter (CSP) is an international society that has a special affiliation with the FSSP. Members join to support the charism of the FSSP through prayers and sacrifice. The FSSP was founded on October 18, 1988, and in October 2013, in connection with the 25th Anniversary of the FSSP, an annual ceremony was adopted to formalize enrollment in the CSP.
On October 18, in apostolates around the world, new members of the CSP who chose to participate will recite the Prayer of the Confraternity at the communion rail. They will receive a solemn blessing, and be granted plenary indulgences from the treasury of grace. Regina Caeli Parish will offer the Confraternity Ceremony for new members after each Mass on that day.
Who may participate? Anyone who joined in the last 12 months.
How will the ceremony proceed? At the end of Mass, the priest will invite new members of the CSP to kneel at the communion rail. Members will read aloud the Prayer of the Confraternity. The priest will confer the blessing.
