Protest at St Basil's Church Demands for the Poor
In Los Angeles, about 300 people led by Bishop Arturo Parrilla Bonilla staged a peaceful outdoor mass outside the $30 million St Basil's Church on Wilshire Boulevard. The protest, linked to Anglo-American Catholics and Catolicos por la Raza, urged greater archdiocesan spending on housing education and aid for the poor, amid tensions over church funding and a prior Christmas Eve clash involving Mexican Americans.
