St. Gertrude Bishop's Apostolate

Since his consecration in November 1993, the Most Rev. Daniel Dolan has ministered to groups of faithful Catholics in America, Canada, Mexico, France, Belgium, Italy, Brazil and Argentina. He has ordained priests for the Institute Mater Boni Consilii (Italy), Trento (Mexico), Most Holy Trinity Seminary, Brooksville, Florida, and for his own Salesian Sacerdotal Society.

The center of Bishop Dolan's apostolate was St. Gertrude the Great Church, West Chester, Ohio. St. Gertrude's (or SGG) is known world-wide for its preservation and exacting observance of the unreformed Catholic rites, which since 2005 it has webcast live via internet to faithful Catholics throughout the world.

Bishop Dolan, through his St. Gertrude Bishop's Apostolate, also supports poor traditional Catholic clergy and their work in the following countries:

• Mexico
• Ukraine
• Argentina
• Nigeria

Since 2016, St. Gertrude Bishop's Apostolate has supported a seminary for native traditional clergy in Lagos, Nigeria, now operated by Bp. Nkamuke. The priest there also serves 11 missions, spread throughout the south of the country. 

Since 2022, Bishop McGuire has taken over the St. Gertrude Bishop's Apostolate. At present, the apostolate covers:

• Mexico
• Argentina
• Ireland
  
• France
• Nigeria

We also now have our own seminary, St. Charles Borromeo Seminary in Seattle, Washington.
