Eastern churches
Вечная память
I’ve been told that Fr Boniface (Luykx), the Belgian legit-liturgical-movement veteran and peritus at Vatican II whose reaction to that council’s betrayal of his life’s work was to join the Ukrainian Catholic Church and start a monastery in California, has died.

Who you gonna call?
A Russian-American friend who travels to Russia often (and went to seminary there!) tells me that some Muslim group are getting antsy in the Crimea (I imagine the Tartars as that’s one of their homelands), tearing down an outdoor cross monument. The Russians are relying on the local Cossacks for police protection.
