JAMESVILLE, N.Y. (AP) – The rectory of a shuttered Catholic church in the Syracuse diocese is being auctioned off.

Bishop Robert J. Cunningham says the building is being sold because St. Mary’s Church in Jamesville is no longer a parish and has no need for it. Cunningham says the church building will not be sold.

Meanwhile, parishioners of St. Mary’s are asking Cunningham to expedite repairs to the church so it can re-open. In a letter sent Tuesday to the bishop, they say they’re concerned about the possible demolition of the church.
