Changing Pastors/Administrators changes the corporate board of the parish

If the pastor or administrator of a parish changes, this means that the corporate board that would vote on the disposition of church property changes, too.  The pastor is one of the five board members and he appoints the 2 lay trustees.

The Archdiocese of New York is now changing pastors and administrators.  See
