The Society of Pope Pius X is a fundamental Catholic sect. It has been criticized as being anti-Jew and anti-Muslim, opposing interactions with other religions except to preach conversion. Last month Pope Leo excommunicated members of the sect after it ignored his directions and consecrated four new bishops.
Christ the King Church in Ridgefield is run by the Society of St. Pius X.
It has had a presence in town since 1978.
The sect broke with the Catholic Church after the Second Vatican Council in 1965, objecting to reforms like normalization of relations with other religions and the use of languages other than Latin in masses.

Interesting to learn about the internal divisions in the Catholic Church. The building looks fine in your photos.
