Holy Innocents in Manhattan Spared -- For Now!

Holy Innocents will remain open and will NOT merge with the local homosexual parish. One bit of good news.

But the bigger question is why are all these parishes closing?

When the apostles went out at Pentecost inspired by the Holy Spirit, they began a movement that converted much of the known world in only a few decades. So what has happened to us as Catholics? Where is our zeal and our witness?

Why do the the Jehovah Witnesses, the Morman missionaries and even the Islamic terrorists show more zeal than we do? Why are we, who have the fullness of the truth, not the leaven in the culture?

Time to examine our consciences.
