Thoughts and opinions from a Priest in the PNCC
When Eve was created distaff extension of Adam, and Adam dug the earth,
Who among them was noble and who of peasant birth?
True, Adam is our father, Eve is our mother,
We all are their children, and each of us a brother.
Translation by Dcn Jim
Gdy Ewa kądziel przędła, Adam ziemię kopał,
Kto tam był szlachcic wtenczas i kto komu chłopał?
Tak Adam gdy nam ojcem, Ewa gdy nam macią,
Wszyscyśmy sobie równą z tych rodziców bracią.

From the Am-Pol Eagle: Blessing a New Church (about half way down the page):
Bishop Thaddeus Peplowski, bishop of Buffalo/Pittsburgh Diocese of the Polish National Catholic Church marked a sign of the cross on the door as part of the blessing ceremony at the new Holy Trinity Church in Woodlawn. The bishop then handed the parish documents and keys to Edward Puchalski, the chairman of the parish committee, and to Fr. Gary Spencer, pastor of the parish.
