Fr. David Mary Engo spent nearly 30 years in the priesthood before affiliating with the Society of St. Pius X. The moment that changed his direction was the Vatican's rejection of the appropriateness of calling Our Lady "Co-Redemptrix." Deeply troubled by what he considers the spread of modernism within the Church, Fr. Engo explains why he could no longer celebrate the Novus Ordo Mass—and why he believes the SSPX offers a faithful response to the present crisis.

Fr. Engo discusses the Diocese of Knoxville's restrictions on the Traditional Latin Mass, his efforts to establish a new traditional Catholic community in East Tennessee, and the disciplinary consequences he has faced since his decision. He criticizes contemporary Catholic leadership, questions the effectiveness of modern evangelization initiatives, and argues that the Traditional Latin Mass expresses the fullness of Catholic doctrine.

Despite the controversy, Fr. Engo insists he remains devoted to the Church. He prays for the pope and his bishop and hopes to preserve the traditional Capuchin Franciscan way of life for future generations. He did not leave the Church. He left a diocese. And he is not alone—a growing number of priests are making the same choice. The question is whether the Church will recognize what is driving them away, or continue to punish them for remaining faithful. The answer may determine the future of the priesthood.
