HOLYOKE – Protesters have decided to comply with an order from the Vatican’s highest court and end a round-the-clock prayer vigil at the Mater Dolorosa Church.
“We are starting our systematic withdrawal today,” said Victor Anop, of Chicopee, an organizer for the vigil.
The group must remove some personal property people have brought in for over the past 12 months but they should be finished in a day or two. The members plan to notify the security officers for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Springfield before they leave.
