Starting the
following Sunday, parishioners and supporters met outside the locked church to
pray.
On Sunday July 8, 2012 the 139th and final street service
was held. St Casimir Church will reopen
on Sunday July 15, 2012.
The St Casimir group was the first
to meet outside the church and never missed a week despite Cleveland's dramatic
weather. They inspired 4 other church
communities (St. Emeric, St. Patrick, St. Wendelin and St. James) to begin meeting
in the street the following summer.
Now their prayers have been answered and St Casimir Church
will reopen with a Mass at 11:30AM on July 15th. The loyal group which was exiled outside for
so long will be able to enter their beloved church again.
Many believe this to be a miracle delivered
to them by the Blessed Virgin as Our Lady of Czestochowa.
