The Bishop’s office was asked about the legitimacy of the traditional Catholic mass at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Mission, which is periodically advertised in the Lewiston-Auburn SunJournal. This “mass” is done by a member of the Congregation of Mary Immaculate Queen, or CMRI, which is a schismatic group begun in Spokane, Washington. There is no proof that priests associated with CMRI are validly ordained; and this group is not in communion with the Roman Catholic Church. Catholics do not satisfy their Sunday Mass obligation by attending services at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Mission.
