There are voices that the anti-Catholic Genoa Archbishop Repole has blocked the election of their superior and imposed a commissioner.
The group consisting of priests, sisters and lay members was founded in 1968 by Father Theodossios Maria della Croce Sgourdelis (+1989), a former Greek general and diplomat who converted from Orthodoxy.
Members of the group are running parishes in Italy and France.
The Fraternity doesn’t use a meal-table in its houses, cultivates the liturgy and liturgical chant, is very obsequious, and pays a lot of homage to Francis (“always in harmony with the Holy Father's teaching”). But seemingly, all this was not enough to placate the wrath of the dictator.
