All Take Papal Oath Before Cardinal Gibbons
In Baltimore, December 29, priests of the archdiocese including Washington and parts of Maryland have all taken the oath required by Pope Pius X before Cardinal Gibbons. The oath, from the encyclical Sacrorum Antistitum, upholds traditional church doctrine and rejects modernist errors. The text affirms faith in the church, Scripture, and traditional teachings, and vows adherence without deviation. The oath campaign follows a 1916 pontifical directive with a January 1, 1971 deadline and has drawn virtual United States-wide compliance.
