Kansas City: Invalid Eucharists for Years?
Two newly appointed Kansas City priests discovered in their three different parishes that they have used a "wine" that was an invalid matter for consecration for years, Archbishop Joseph Naumann wrote in a May 31 letter (PillarCatholic.com).
Therefore, the Eucharists were possibly invalid and the intentions not fulfilled. Naumann has asked Francis' Vatican for guidance - although Francis couldn't care less.
Naumann tells his priests that altar wine must be made from grapes, without additives, and be "vinified for sacramental use" (although the Vatican has said that the latter is not necessary).
It's unknown what the Eucharists have been celebrated with (grape juice?). Naumann simply states that many commercial wines contain additives like elderberry extract, sugar, alcohol, etc. which could invalidate the Eucharist.

The Novus Ordo Mass has been invalid since its inception. Read this and weep! Fidelity to the Word: Fr. Meuli argues "for all" renders Mass invalid
@occasnltrvlr I disagree. Was "for all" ever used? If so for how long? If it ever was used even once the point is clearly relevant. And the fact that it was used for over Thirty years indicates the state of decay of the novus ordo church and its followers. You can't expect to put the barnyard animals back in the barn after it has been burned down.
@Jeffrey Ade To the best of my recollection, I've heard it used exactly once. So, yes, for me, it was relevant. Once. But the barn didn't burn down, and the barnyard animals are okay.
