Of course, our church is in better condition, has better parking and is easier to find. <BR/><BR/>I figure that I'll leave the decision making to the new pastor and support what ever decision he makes.

We have friends in the larger parish that will merge with our small one, and all we hear is that it's our church's fault that Father is being reassigned...<BR/>It's going to be tough on them too.
