St. John the Evangelist church in Inglewood

Postby newsposter » Tue Dec 28, 2010 10:16 am

St. John the Evangelist church in Inglewood, dating to 1905, has voted to leave the Anglican church and join the Catholic church. Comments in the article suggest a debate over ownership of the church may be brewing, between the parish and the Anglican Diocese. Let's hope the historic building is secure and well-used whatever the outcome.

A bit of closure on this story. It looks like at least for the time being the congregation will continue to use the 107-year old Inglewood church.
