In anticipation of future events and activities in this Year of 2010... we are disconnecting many of the links to the old news and the archives. We are going to create a new archive having to do only with religious news that we consider important. Each Month's DAILY NEWS will contain both religious and secular, but will also be culled at the end of each month to save only religious news for archiving... This will obviously take time to accomplish for those article in past years and cause some problems along the way with some links not working... But we do ask for your patience in our endeavors.

You have reached the end of the primary article or news item(s) posted. We take no responsibility or liability for News or other information posted at this web site, nor any link to other websites or the contents therein - If a link does not fully work... It is up to you, the viewer to use your "back" or "return" button to get back to this web site! Scroll down for more information!

"Never, never, never let anyone tell you that, in order to be Orthodox, you must also be eastern. The West was Orthodox for a thousand years, and her venerable liturgy is far older than any of her heresies."

- Blessed St. John Maximovitch of Shanghai and San Francisco

So, as said, Daily News is very important to a true Orthodox Catholic Christian.
