You're listening to the SSPX podcast. In this episode, Father Patrick Rutledge, the prior of

Assumption Chapel in St. Mary's, Kansas, addresses questions submitted by supporters of the

Immaculata Church Project. Father Rutledge previously appeared on this podcast talking about the project

back in March of 2020. A link to that episode is listed here on the show notes, or by

visiting SSPX Podcast.com, you'll be able to find it as well. This podcast is audio taken from a video

released on October 7th, entitled 13 Questions in 13 Minutes, which can be found here in the

show notes, on social media, and as well on the project's website,

anewemeculata.org. Some questions include, when will the church be completed? Does the 30

million dollar budget cover everything, including the pews, the altar, and all the furnishings?

Will there be a real pipe organ installed? Father Rutledge answers all of these questions in this episode of the SSPX podcast.

And as well, there is a short snippet at the end of an Archbishop Lefebvre giving a sermon in St. Mary's in the 1980s.
