About St. Benedict’s Chapel: St. Benedict’s
Chapel is a mission Chapel of the Church of
St. Gregory the Great, Virginia Beach, Virginia. The Chapel was established by virtue of Pope John Paul II’s Motu Proprio, Ecclesia Dei,
Water Color of New Churchunder the aegis of the Most Rev. Walter F. Sullivan, DD, then Bishop of Richmond. Many of the details were ironed out with the help of his Auxiliary, who went on to become the Bishop of Birmingham, Alabama, and with the capable assistance of its first pastor, Father Paschal Kneip, OSB. The Chapel was functional when the present Bishop of Richmond was installed, who invited the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter into the Diocese to staff St. Benedict’s Chapel, when members of the Chapel, in response to Bishop DiLorenzo’s charge to do so, were unable to find a diocesan priest to relieve Fr. Damian Abbaticchio, OSB. St. Benedict’s Chapel continues under the provisions of the Motu Proprio, Summorum Pontificum, with the permission of His Excellency, The Most Reverend Francis X. DiLorenzo, Bishop of the Diocese of Richmond. St. Benedict’s Chapel is the sole Apostolate of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP) in the Richmond Diocese, and is staffed with a priest from the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter.
