Dominique Rey

About

Dominique Marie Jean Rey is the Bishop of Fréjus-Toulon in the province of Marseille in southern France. He is a member of the Emmanuel Community, and he is considered one of the more conservative French bishops. He also frequently celebrates Tridentine Mass. This has brought him under pressure from the Vatican in its campaign to suppress the Tridentine rite along with the theology associated with it. He is been criticized for ordaining priests who had failed qualifications in their home countries and then losing track of them, as well as for his lack of action against sex abusers in his diocese.
