Draft:Queen of All Saints

The Queen of All Saints (QAS) is a Traditionalist Catholic chapel that provides the Traditional Latin Mass to Catholics in the Tampa Bay area as well as in Arizona, California, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. As a Sedevacantist group, they hold the belief that the Holy See has been vacant since the death of Pope Pius XII due to alleged heresies espoused by subsequent popes. Their rejection of theological and disciplinary changes implemented after the Second Vatican Council led them to conclude that the popes involved are not valid.

History and Beliefs

The chapel’s origins trace back to the rejection of Vatican II’s changes. Sedevacantists see these changes as contradicting traditional Catholic teachings and denying the unique mission of Catholicism as the one true religion. They also consider new disciplinary norms, such as the Mass of Paul VI, as undermining the historical Catholic faith. Consequently, they hold that Pope John XXIII and his successors left the true Catholic Church and lost legitimate authority.

Worship and Services

The QAS offers the Traditional Latin Mass on weekends and weekdays. Their Mass schedule includes services at different locations, such as QAS Spring Lake and QAS Barnett. Confessions are available during Mass, and they emphasize the importance of All Night Adoration on Holy Thursday.
