"I seem to remember that the first thing I heard about this months ago was that the parish was on a preliminary list for closing"

I live in ArchStL and I've never heard this. Not saying it didn't happen, but I would like to see a source for this assertion, because I've followed this story fairly closely over the months (and years) and have never heard this.

"but I would like to see a source for this assertion,"

I'll try to find something.
