St. Adalbert's Basilica, Buffalo

:"The basilica of Esztergom, Hungary is also called St. Adalbert's Basilica."

of Munich, Germany.

The St. Adalbert's Response to Love Center, run by Sister Mary Johnice, is located next to the Basilica and provides services for the poor of Buffalo, such as hot meals, a food pantry, toys and clothing for children, GED classes, and basic career-related computer training.

The last mass was scheduled for November 25, 2007 but has been put on hold due to the parish having filed an appeal to the Vatican. They have received notice from Rome stating that the merger is on hold and nothing can be changed until the decision is received from the Congregation for the Clergy and the as needed filing to an even higher court, the Apostolic Signatura.

In February 2008 the Vatican's highest Canonical Court upheld Bishop Edward Kmiec's decision to close the church. Due to technicality in canon law the appeal has yet to be finalized and is still on going.
