Two historic Catholic churches may close

Two historic Catholic churches south of downtown are among those recommended for closing in the archdiocesan plan to reduce the number of parishes on St. Louis' south side.

St. John Nepomuk, at 1631 South 11th Street, and St. Mary of Victories, at 1417 South Ninth Street, would be merged into a new regional parish.

Here's some news about St. Francis de Sales which I had not seen in the paper before:

Under the plan, St. John Nepomuk and St. Mary of Victories would be merged into a new regional parish under a new name at St. Wenceslaus, 3014 Oregon Avenue. St. Francis de Sales, a towering church four blocks from St. Wenceslaus, would become the new St. Louis-area home for Masses in Latin, which now are celebrated at St. Agatha's, next to the Anheuser-Busch Cos. Inc. brewery.

Still no mention of the Institute of Christ the King, Sovereign Priest...
