Diocese of Brooklyn decimates education





"The schools, like Transfiguration in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and Ascension in Elmhurst, Queens, have been cornerstones of their neighborhoods for decades, some for more than a century, and have provided a critical refuge and stepping-stone for children - Catholic and otherwise - in some of the poorest neighborhoods in the city." More of the vicious circle of decline. Fewer schools, lower Mass attendance, fewer Churches, fewer laity. Forty years since the Council: the years that the locusts have eaten.
