Our Lady of Peace has all-night First Friday Exposition with confession leading into First Saturday morning Mass. The parish is rock solid in the faith and economically viable. Why the Archdiocese would want to close it down is beyond me. I love that little church.

If you live in NYC or are visiting, please consider dropping by Our Lady of Peace and signing the petition. The church is located on the north side of east 62nd Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues.

Is this parish self-supporting?

“The archdiocese spends some $40 million a year to keep struggling parishes afloat, officials have said.”

Do the “Hundreds of parishioners” attend services weekly at that parish?

A poorly written story by historic WSJ standards.
