CLEVELAND — The Diocese of Cleveland says it has received official decrees reversing the closure of 13 Roman Catholic churches.
In a statement, Bishop Richard Lennon says that the decrees were received yesterday from the Vatican and that he is reviewing the rulings with advisers.
Lennon has 60 days to must decide whether he will appeal the decisions.
The Vatican’s Congregation for the Clergy ruled the bishop failed to follow church law and procedure in the closings three years ago.
