Holy Family Traditional Catholic Church was originally founded in Charleston, SC (1977), by Catholics who resolved to keep, maintain, and practice their Roman Catholic faith & heritage, despite the many irregularities & errors of the Vatican II church.
Our mission is to preserve, whole and intact, the dogmatic - and unchangeable - teachings of the Council of Trent, as well as adhering to the Papal Bull, Quo Primum Tempore, of Pope St. Pius V. Quo Primum guarantees the perpetual right and usage of the ancient Latin Mass to all priests and anathematizes anyone, even bishops and popes, who would dare to make any change whatsoever.
Holy Family Traditional Catholic Church is open to all Catholics who desire to worship in the ancient Latin Mass (pre-1950's) that their forefathers believed in, prayed, and attended; that which created the many saints of the past that we know and honor today.
We are independent of the Vatican II church, the Diocese of Charleston and its bishop, but not independent of Sacred Tradition, the authentic Magisterium, or Apostolic Succession. We abhor schism and heresy and moral laxity, which is why we have distanced ourselves from any and all diocesan facilities of the Vatican II church and its hierarchy.
