The Rochester Catholic Diocese says it wants to hear from people who might be affected by the recent announcement that 13 Catholic schools in Monroe County will be closing. The Diocese is putting together a team of its top officials, and it hopes to meet with smaller groups like principals, pastors, and parish parent representatives. Diocese spokesman Doug Mandelaro says it's gotten a number of proposals from parishes about ways to save their school. He says, "whole purpose here is to hear them out, see if these plans are viable, no guarantees, but we obviously want to hear these proposals and ideas." Mandelaro says this has been an incredibly painful situation for people. He says Bishop Matthew Clark knows what they are going through. Meantime, it's not known, at this point, whether Bishop Clark will appear at any of these meetings.

The Bishop is in so much pain that he went on vacation this week.
