Bishop Hodur Remembered by a Lapsed RC

[Wigglesworth]

Tensions have developed in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Scranton, Pennsylvania, over parish closures, school closures, and teachers who formed a union. A local blogger there brought back the memory of the circumstances leading to the organization of the Polish National Catholic Church.

While I had heard of this sister church to the Old Catholics, the OP prompted me to look at her history, and at the website in general, for the first time. Thank you for the introduction. It's always good to learn more about fellow pilgrims on the old catholic way.
