Historic Catholic Church in Chicago to Close After More Than 100 Years | EWTN News Nightly

A Catholic church in Chicago that opened more than 100 years ago is set to close for good this Sunday after the 1pm Mass. There is a community effort to try and save Our Lady of Lourdes on the north side of Chicago. One group is trying to have it be designated as a historic landmark. The church was built in 1916. Parishioners say it draws pilgrims from all over the country to see the replica of the Grotto of Lourdes in France. The archdiocese says the church is no longer needed since a merger with nearby St. Mary of the Lake. The pastor of both parishes said in a statement, "This is a very difficult moment in the life of our parish. We understand that this decision will cause hurt, sadness, anger and confusion." President of the nonprofit Our Lady of Lourdes Church Preservation Society, Katarina Garcia, joins to tell us more about Our Lady of Lourdes and why it qualifies as a historic landmark and should be preserved. The archdiocese says Mass attendance at Our Lady of Lourdes has steadily dropped. And with limited priest help, it was necessary to consolidate Mass times and eventually close and merge with the other nearby church. Garcia responds to this. She discusses what the feeling is among parishioners.

They also closed the first Portuguese church in the United States, located in New Bedford, Massachusetts. We fought so hard with the dioceses to preserve our Portuguese catholic heritage and they only played games with the parishioners. Gave us rules and markers to accomplish. We would ask for bench markers, which they never gave us numbers. We accomplished everything they told us that we needed and at the end, it was not enough and they still closed us down. It was one of the hardest things I personally went through because we lost a whole faith family at once!

@SL-es5kb 13 күн бұрын

It’s possible that There is probably deferred maintenance costs making it difficult for any group to maintain it. Even if maintained these beautiful churches cost way may than modern buildings to maintain. The dioceses are being cold and calculating not recognizing the intangible value. Better to sell off modern churches and consolidate behind these buildings if truly backed in a corner imo. Thr modern churches have more resale value anyways. We have a 1883 gothic style cathedral in my area closing this year. It’s already been classified as historic heritage so its just going to sit there empty and deteriorate further for decades unless some wealthy benefactors take over it’s maintenance. my guess is you will be seeing a lot of this happening with these older churches. It’s devastating.

The people have moved south. In North Texas three enormous new churches have been, or are being, built in only one area. It is a pity that some of the building materials from the old and now unused churches can't be used for building new churches in places where the faith is very much alive. The church I attend is filled to capacity at every Mass, there is a steady stream of converts and baptisms. This parish alone has five young men in seminary (some from this parish were priested recently). There are normally about thirty or thirty five in seminary for The Diocese. There are lessons to be learned about how the Mass is presented to the people and there are lessons to be learned about adherence to The Faith . As some one once said "He who marries the spirit of the age is soon a widower", that can be turned around for women too, but The Church should never make an ungodly marriage with the latest fads in teaching and morals. Although some of the drift away from churches is because industries, jobs and the cost of housing mean that people migrate, the fact remains that many churches have a liturgy that is 'unsatisfactory' and the complete Faith is not taught, while some of the more troublesome social issues are condoned. Unfortunately there are other religious bodies that look like 'the old style religion' , but are not in Communion with The Church Catholic and people can be led astray. We are as some great theologians have said, "A Pilgrim People", it is not good for us to look back like Lot's Wife, but rather facilitate new growth and adhere more closely to The Good News, not The New News and then maybe people would be drawn to those very churches that are failing now.

In the Roman army, if a cohort of the legion was defeated in Battle at the end of the Battle. The surviving leader would be executed. It is why the Roman army was such an effective fighting machine because of the level of accountability perhaps. If? We treated our bishops the same way with war against the devil, our churches would be filled. Are bishops are unmotivated and faithless as those who do not attend church.
