The bishops’ call for adherence to Catholic “rules” follows an Internet controversy over a August 2022 video of a laywoman who seemed to concelebrate Mass with priests. The Catholic bishops of the three German-speaking dioceses in Switzerland — Basel, Chur and Sankt Gallen — have published a letter calling for compliance with liturgical rules regarding the sacramental authority that is attributed solely to the Church’s ordained presbyters .

Now the new letter — signed by Bonnemain and Bishops Felix Gmür and Markus Büchel — has been seen as a warning to Catholics who may be tempted to introduce unlawful liturgical initiatives. They also remind their people of the conditions that are required for valid celebrations of the Eucharist and other sacraments. “Common witness requires common forms and rules. We bishops regularly receive requests and worried reactions: The faithful have a right to religious services that respect the rules and forms of the Church,” they point out.
