to be razed as soon as possible


The home of the oldest Lithuanian Catholic parish in the United States, St. George was closed by the Diocese of Allentown in May 2006 due to reported safety concerns involving the structural integrity of the twin steeples. On Sept. 24, the diocese announced that the church would be razed as soon as possible, since estimated costs to repair are more than $9 million.
