The deluge should keep flowing towards Rome without let up. Lots of people need to be writting lots of letters.

Oh the target should be the one Cardinal Prefect who deals with the Eastern Churches and not everyone who moves in a cassock. In case anyone is wondering who it is HB Patriarch Ignatius Mousa I Daud. It is no good sending letters to the tea lady in the Vatican, target the right person and get the mail rolling in by the bag load. Happy mailing!

That's a shame, "doxing out" to the OCA. Personally, I would opted for one of the numerous ACROD parishes. At least in those parishes you will hear Subcarpathian Prostopinije. I couldn't give up hearing my native indigenous liturgical music tradition. The OCA music is just to bland for my taste. But then again, I'm not in the "fire sale" eparchy of Passaic.
Ungcsertezs (give me Prostopinije or give me death!)

Dear Ung,
I met with all 4 of the ACROD priests in the area. It was my first choice. Unfortunately they are not where we want to be. I have great joy and respect for Metropolitan Nicholas. As I looked at all the Orthodox Churches in the area it was hard to find a home. However, I am settling in with a local OCA church and my family and I are happy.
Basil

For those of you who care the Inland Wetland Commission of Trumbull meets tonight to continue the Public Hearing on the proposal to build age restricted cluster housing on the St John's property. Opposition to this project has been intensifying throughout the community & the parish. Stay tuned!

Is the sale a done deal or is it contingent on zoning approval?
Prayers.

It has to get thru wetlands first then onto Planning & Zoning. Another option is to sell it to the town for Open Space. I don't know if any offers are on the table but the interest is there.

Cardinal Daoud didn't respond to the Holy Trinty Closure, why should he respond to this? My recomendation is to make the Apostolic Nuncio aware also.

How organised was the deluge of mail from the USA to Rome. Well We have Cardinal George Pell and a host of other bishops down here because Rome got very worried by the volume of mail coming from Australia each day complaining about the bishops and what they were getting up to.

Rome got very worried by the volume of mail coming from Australia each day Sadly, this is the reason we WON'T be heard. Even if every parishioner in the Eparchy of Passaic wrote a letter it would still be the equivalent of just one or two large RC parishes in one large US city. I don't believe our bishops get heard in Rome, let alone our people. Sam
