Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre’s later life is marked by controversies, but there can be no doubting the overall role that he played in the church.
He was a missionary in Gabon, Superior of the Holy Ghost Fathers and one of the fathers of the Second Vatican Council.
He was well travelled and well educated.
It is no surprise then that he made prescient remarks about the future of France in the late 1980s, which later cost him 5,000 francs for ‘hate speech’.
