New York Church Closings

For those who haven’t yet read this  article published a while ago in the NY Post – an attempt to survey the results so far of the current and past “reconfigurations.”  The list, at least as it regards Roman Catholic churches, is by no means complete. I was horrified though, to see that St. James church is on the “hit list” again – although given the criteria of the Archdiocese that is not surprising. St James is one of the most historically and artistically important churches of the Archdiocese. Will the same Irish-American organizations that saved and restored it once before intervene again?
