speechless here.

Future target.
They should have Bulldozed the place down and buried pigs every 100 feet on the property, before giving it over to Satan.
Oh good Lord, words fail me.
This is what happens when Catholic embrace birth control and secular education.
Is this in Virginia?
I’d like to send the Catholic owners a message.
I'm actually surprised that boys and girls are in the same room.
Hajia Sophia....and then there is this

As a youngster, I was taught by the Sisters of St. Joseph....in a school that my and my friends’ parents built....which has also now been sold off.
Brentwood is on Long Island, NY. It used to be the main place (not sure you would call it a convent) for the Sisters of St. Joseph. IIRC, it was also where the older nuns who had finished teaching would retire.

My response to this story:
Some things are basic to the faith, whether catholic or protestant...
and that is:
There is no God but God, and Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Messiah.
To open the school to those who do not ascribe to this, is spiritual treason against the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

This is right in my neck of the woods. The Academy of St. Joseph closed a few years ago because of low enrollment.
Now, there are many reasons for declining enrollment at Catholic schools, and on Long Island, there is no doubt that property (school) taxes are among them. When you are paying about $15k/year in property (school) taxes, it is difficult indeed to scrape together the $$$$ for Catholic education.
That said, St. Joseph’s is the only Catholic high school that has closed in several years. The last one I can remember was the LaSalle Military Academy, which closed about 10 years ago (after they started admitting girls).
I have no doubt that the squishy theology taught by the Sisters of St. Joseph has a TON to do with it. That order has truly gone chug-chug-chugging right ‘round the bend. They are big into the Mother Earth new-ageism stuff.
Who would want to spend a bundle of cash on a “Catholic” education that is only barely Catholic? No me, that’s for sure.
Regards,
PS: It is an absolute disgrace that the school has gone over to the Muslims. An absolute disgrace.
Sad to hear the Sisters of St. Joseph took that kind of turn. My sister, my friends and I received a pretty good grammer school education from them. Of course that was more than fifty years ago.
Heaven & Hell?
New York state.
Well I spent my youth and graduated High School in Brentwood, NY. Very sad to hear this news. St Joseph is a very beautiful campus. Let the muzzies build their own mosques and not from a converted church or christian edifice. Long Island has become 3rd World_like in many locales. Texas is home now.
I didn’t know LaSalle closed! Of course, I’ve avoided Long Island as much as possible. It was a really great place to grow up. The oddball in the neighborhood was “Jimmy the Greek”. Now I just wish my parents would sell and get out so I didn’t have to go over the stupid bridges to see them.
