Vatican considers appeal
to keep East Side church open
"The closing of St. Adalbert Catholic Church is on hold as the Vatican considers an appeal from parishioners to keep open the basilica-style church on the East Side. But if the Vatican’s Congregation of the Clergy moves quickly on the matter, the planned closure will proceed as scheduled, according to officials with the Catholic Diocese of Buffalo. A closing Mass is scheduled for Nov. 25; two weeks later, the parish is scheduled to merge with St. John Kanty. "
