Chronicle of the Catholic Church in Ukraine
Following are excerpts from Issue No. 7 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. 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. The excerpts below are translated by the staff of The Weekly from the original Ukrainian.
