Washington Archbishop Prospero Penados del Barrio says no volunteers would staff a church human rights panel, so he assumed the role himself after receiving death threats and a blood stained handkerchief. Philadelphia obituary notes Rev. Frank Heinze, 68, longtime information officer for the former United Presbyterian Church, died after bypass surgery and was known for the column Frankly Speaking. New York reports a letter from the Latin American Council of Churches condemns the situation.
