We have been waiting for this moment for 225 years - Independence Day and the First Holy Mass Celebrated in the Temple of Divine Providence
“We have been waiting for this moment for 225 years,” emphasized the Metropolitan of Warsaw, Cardinal Kazimierz Nycz, at the beginning of the first Mass celebrated in the Temple of Divine Providence in Warsaw’s District of Wilanow. On November 11th, Poland’s Independence Day, this church, under construction by the Poles since the adoption of the Constitution in 1791, was opened to the faithful. The work on this edifice—intended to be an ex-voto—was impeded first by the partition of Poland, then by World War II and the communist government.

An international rights group said Thursday that the Sri Lankan government's decision to appoint the civil war-winning general to Parliament contradicts its pledges to investigate alleged abuses under his command. Human Rights Watch said the appointment of former army commander Sarath Fonseka signals that the government may protect senior military leaders suspected of abuses. Fonseka took his oath as a lawmaker Tuesday. He commanded Sri Lanka's army from 2005 until the end of war in 2009 and is credited with leading the army to victory over the ethnic minority Tamil rebels.
