Note that this is an SSPX Catholic church; it is not a Roman Catholic church. SSPX is a "traditionalist" Catholic group that was founded by Marcel Lefebvre, who was excommunicated by the Roman Catholic Church. The four bishops that Lefebvre installed also were excommunicated but later reinstalled; however, Rome has noted, "As long as the Society does not have a canonical status in the Church, its ministers do not exercise legitimate ministries in the Church." Personally, I do not care one way or the other, since I no longer am a practicing Roman Catholic; however, I wonder if the people of St. Mary's, Kansas, are aware of this.
Note also that the SSPX and its ministers do have faculties, its masses are valid, its absolutions are valid. The SSPX's canonical status is "irregular," not schismatic, not separated. Their administering of the sacraments is valid. Relations between the Society and the Vatican are ongoing, with Popes Benedict XVI and Francis working to fully regularize their status.
David. Evidently you do care about SSPX. You view and comment on their channel. Your "traditionalist" statement is like "straining a gnat and swallowing a camel." Everyone at SSPX recognizes that Rome is at odds with the Catholic Faith. It is like "the world awoke and found that it was Arian." The Catholic Faith is again in eclipse. Do you not think it remarkable that God raised up a single Bishop to preserve the Mass of All Ages? Without the venerable Archbishop Lefebvre, there would be no SSPX, FSSP, Institute of Christ The King and some smaller Traditional groups. Pope Benedict would not have written Summorum Pontificum and the Latin Mass would be in the dust bin. The Novus Ordo has baked in Protestantism. It is disordered in so many ways. Scandal and heresy. SSPX and their Mass offer suitable worship to God the Father. It looks and sounds Catholic in every manner. As for yourself, do not be cut off from Jesus Christ and His Church. Confess to the Priest and find your way home. Join our Holy Society.
Only The Mass of All Ages will be said in this holy place.

The Society is not in schism. Pope Francis recently confirmed this.
