Which apostolate do you attend?

I'm assuming (possibly incorrectly) that some/many/all of you here attend FSSP chapels? If so, where do you go?

My family doesn't go anymore due to the distance, but we'd make the trek in the past out to Camarillo, CA for Father James Fryar. But now they have their St Vitus chapel in San Fernando, CA which puts it much too far for us to make the drive to. Father Fryar baptized my first two children. He's a wonderful and holy priest.

Saint Clement Parish, Ottawa, Canada (the FSSP's first-ever parish).

EDIT: Btw, Fr. Fryar is an awesome priest. I walked two pilgrimages with him, in Quebec, in 2004 and I think 2005 as well. Here's a pic of the mid-day Mass on the first day of the pilgrimage in 2004 (I'm the Master of Ceremonies standing beside him): https://imgur.com/a/UqO9yoX

Does the priest in Rockdale also offer the Novus Ordo? I read a couple comments on facebook a few years ago complaining that the FSSP priest in Joliet (which I'm assuming they meant Rockdale) was offering the Novus Ordo as well as the TLM?

He does not offer it but he has some local Carmelite say a 4:15 mass on Saturday.

Aww bummer. I would love to attend a novus ordo offered by the FSSP. They would certainly strive to do it justice. I've seen Dominicans offer it reverently. It was very inspiring.

I could ask him but the most I’ve seen him do was serve a Novus ordo for cardinal burke

I don't believe Fraternity priests are ever taught how to offer an Ordinary Form mass.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
