Biographical data
He emigrated to the United States after 1956. He entered the seminary in the 1960s but discontinued his studies before ordination. He entered the Franciscan Order on September 4, 1990. He took his vows on August 5, 1991. He firmly rejected the liturgical decisions of the Second Vatican Council and joined the Society of St. Pius X, within which he was ordained a priest on September 14, 1996. Because he repeatedly showed disobedience toward the Catholic Church, he was suspended on several occasions.
