Read Robert Geroux' dotCommonweal post on "Religion and the "Value-Added" Life". Very Our Lady of Vilnius.
At the noon Mass attended mostly by area workers (and some who took the subway to get there) Father Eugene would apply the antidote to the insults of work day by telling us that we are the apple of God's eye.
Why haven't I heard it at more Masses?
"An intelligent person fights for lost causes, realizing that others are merely effects."

OLV Watering Hole (Broome Street Bar) sold for $12M
It's sad to see the Broome Street Bar go the way of Our Lady of Vilnius. When the church was open, those who wanted to continue the conversation after kavine would troop east, past the Church of the Most Holy Crucifix, now the Chapel of St. Lorenzo Ruiz, to the Broome Street Bar.
When the church was endangered, we would gather there to strategize and speculate about saving it. After the church was closed, we would demonstrate and then chow down on those burgers served with the little side salad.
Either way, it was always a good time and we were happy in each other's company there. According to the New York Post item that shared this sad news:
"The plan is to create a fabulous new Soho restaurant and bar in the spirit of the Soho institution,” said a source close to the deal brokered by Michael Bolla, Wynter Galindez and Lisa Rosenthal."Instead of a comfortable place where you could linger and talk to people to whom you haven't introduced, it will become a sanitized culinary theme park.
Fabulous.

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
