They are Catholic Christians.
Redemptorists are a "kind" of priest. One branch of monk. But a traveling or missionary monk.
Hence "trans" as in through. Alpine as in Alps.
The Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer, better known as the 'Redemptorists', was founded in 1732 by St. Alphonsus Ligouri who was called by God to preach Salvation. It grew to over 6,000 members throughout the world.
Other well known Redemptorists include: St. Clement Mary, St. Gerard Majella, St. John Neumann, Blessed Peter Donders.
The Transalpine Redemptorists are a branch of the Redemptorists. They say the Tridentine Mass observe the traditional Redemptorist Rule.
As far as I know, they are not using the Ecclesia Dei observance of the Latin Mass. They follow Marcel Lefebvre, which may put them in schism with the Holy See.
Since the Holy Father will be loosening up the "rules" regarding use of the Tridentine Mass as early as next month, it's not likely they'll be in schism for much longer.

The Transalpine Redemptorists are an autonomous group of Redemptorists based in Papa Stronsay in the Orkney Islands, Scotland. They are not officially recognised by the hierarchy of the Catholic Church as they are affiliated with the traditionalist Catholic Society of St. Pius X, a group in irregular relations with the Holy See.
Originally based in Joinville, France, they moved to the Isle of Sheppey in Kent before moving to their present location in 1999 after purchasing the island from its previous owners. The Transalpine Redemptorists operate the Golgotha Monastery on the island, and publish "The Catholic".

Transalpine Redemptorists, who broke away from the Catholic Church and who celebrate the old Latin mass. Although spirituality is at the core of their being, they are an eclectic bunch of lively and characterful people, each with a tale to tell.

Ok, I give. I am a seroius Bible student and a child of God, but I have never heard that term yet. Give us a clue, what is this, is it a new slang term , did you just make it up or what? If we know what you think it is, then maybe we can respond.
I know that those who believe in Jesus, turn from Sin, ask Jesus into their hearts, and live a holy life in obedience to Him, and turn from sin, will be saved. and soon we will be raptured home. SO, hope you are on THIS page today.
if not, I pray it so for you.
