Blessing and encouragement of the local bishop the spirit of the Society of st. Pius the tenth is essentially apostolic it was designed by its founder to operate much like a missionary order spreading the faith far and wide this apostolate is today especially necessary considering the spread of atheism agnosticism and religious indifference
