To the Editor:

How do you tell our Lord you will be closing down one of his houses? What a sad day that would be for us parishioners of St. Mary’s Church, Newburgh. This beautiful, glorious, peaceful house we parishioners attend puts us in a state of tranquility. 

We have become a family concerned with the needs and personal attention for one another. Our church is well kept and maintained. Our pastor is dutiful, sincere and works diligently to maintain his churches. 

Please reconsider the importance this church holds for all the people. If the Catholic religion is sincere in its efforts to serve the people in God’s house in this area, then let the existence be. A favorable decision is appreciated.
