The cry of the early Church was, "Without the Eucharist we are nothing!" My bishop has been refusing to allow priests to distribute communion on the tongue, and as a member of a Latin Mass community, we have not received the Eucharist at Sunday Mass for almost two years. I never thought I'd see the day when the bishops are playing the role of Caesar, and persecuting their own flock. Thank God for leaders like Douglas Farrow who bear witness to the truth!
Thanks for writing this Doug! Prescient and wise. I hope all church leaders here in the Western provinces will read this and take this to heart. Whatever happens in the next weeks, it is indeed a time of purification for the church!

I expect that underground churches are not a new idea.
