CWN Editor's Note: Bishop Hugh Gilbert, O.S.B., of Aberdeen, Scotland, has extended permission for the extraordinary form of the Mass to be celebrated weekly, rather than monthly, at a church in his diocese.

The Masses will be offered by two priests who left the Transalpine Redemptorist community . The community adopted a sedevacantist position in May and announced that the illicit episcopal consecration of one of its priests will take place on July 25.
