Breaking News re: Holy Trinity

The AP, the Associated Press, one of the most reliable and prominent news sources in the country, has picked up our story; I just found out, via the Yahoo Group for the bunch of us trying to save my parish, that the New York Times is going to carry a story about the impending closing.

You can dodge the issue, O'Malley and "Manning", but you can't hide behind your excuses forever. To paraphrase the Merovingian, we survived the Know-Nothings torching the original wood-frame structure in the 1850s, and we will survive *you*.

The exterior. The steeple got knocked off the belltower during a hurricane in the 1930s, but it's still a great example of German Gothic architecture

The interior, facing the sanctuary. This is an older picture: a few years back, the walls behind the altar were painted blue.

Wow..looks like a beautiful parish. Hope they can save it.
Is it a "traditional" parish by any chance? The altar looks very pre-Vatican 2, judging from what i've seen in pics.
