Well dear friends, it appears that Fr. Pfeiffer has decided to conditionally "re-confirm" some of the laity and a few seminary aspirants yesterday. [All this is rather amazing as he as spent much of the last eighteen months defending the Novus Ordo Sacraments, particularly that of Ordination and Consecration.]
However, this assumes that one actually accepts Fr. Pfeiffer's "episcopal consecration" this past June as valid and legitimate, which really no one aside from his devoted followers, does accept. There have been multiple lines of objections against the validity of this supposed "consecration," the positive doubts about which have not been removed.
Of note, in the sermon Fr. Pfeiffer apologizes for the mistakes made in this particular ceremony. He also informs the seminarians that they have to do a better job making their Holy Hour this seminary year, stating that there was not enough effort last year. I am sorry to have to point this out these things but Fr. Pfeiffer's himself states them, publicly. 'Si palam res est, repetitio injuria non est; To say what everybody knows is no injury.'

Speaking to the point that Fr. Pfeiffer aggressively tried to defend the Novus Ordo Sacraments ever since Fr. Hewko left OLMC -
Perhaps some of you will recall how Fr. Pfeiffer wrote and then circulated (with help from the laity) some vicious emails at the beginning of the year directed to several individuals, including Fr. Hewko. (Some had asked that these emails be post here on The Catacombs - which I refused to do as those emails were so far below the dignity of their priestly author, for his sake, I declined.)
In one of those epistles Fr. Pfeiffer mocked Fr. Hewko for doing a conditional baptism - again, an attack on Fr. Hewko's (and Archbishop Lefebvre's and the old-SSPX's) stance on the doubtfulness of the Novus Ordo Sacraments.
Here is a little vindication of Fr. Hewko's conditional Baptisms:
When the story broke a few weeks ago about Novus Ordo priest(s) who found out his baptism was invalid and because of that he was not considered a priest, even by the Novus Ordo, I couldn't help of think of those harsh words of Fr. Pfeiffer to Fr. Hewko, mocking him for trying to right what arguably could be a widespread wrong!
