Read on Cathobel (official media of the French-speaking Catholic Church in Belgium):
"Vincent Richter, originally from Steffeshausen, in the German-speaking part of the Diocese of Liège, was ordained a priest for the FSSPX on June 29, on the solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, at the seminary in Écône. Bishop Jean-Pierre Delville, Bishop of Liège, was informed of this. His public response has nothing of a ban."
"Bishop Delville assures the new priest of his prayers and encourages him to follow Christ in his future mission in Brazil. The Bishop of Liège pronounces neither blame nor excommunication. He chooses a rare tone in this type of situation: that of encouragement addressed to a man he considers a disciple of the Gospel. [...] Father Richter, he writes, is invited to serve Christ 'as an authentic disciple of the Gospel.'
"Where others would first recall the canonical sanction, the Bishop of Liège performs an act of blessing."
