Christina -
After I posted this, it occurred to me - maybe the Free Catholic
Church is just an alternate translation of the name of the Liberal
Catholic Church. Correct? - or is it a separate group? (I know
there are a number of "Free Catholic" groups here in the US - but I
am not aware of any, using that name, which are Theosophical in
perspective.)
To all -
Are there folks on this list from the southeastern US? I've recently
moved from NY to TN -- and miss the great New York Theosophical
Society. I've been thinking of trying to start a study group here in
Nashville.
