Chronicle of the Catholic Church in Ukraine
The following excerpts are from Issue No. 6 of the Chronicle of the Catholic Church in Ukraine, an underground publication which made its appearance in January 1984 but has only recently reached the West. Thus far, eight issues have made their way out of Ukraine. The Chronicle is published in samvydav form by the Initiative Group for the Defense of Believers and the Church, which was founded in 1982 to promote the legalization of the Ukrainian Catholic Church, which has been outlawed since 1946.
