A local San Marcos church has been saved by its congregation.
St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church announced in a reverse of course on Sunday it would not be selling its chapel located at 218 Roosevelt St. in the Barrio de la Victoria neighborhood.
“The property we have on 218 Roosevelt St. will now be our St. Vincent de Paul Society location," St. John's wrote. "We are looking forward to branching out with more Social Services for our community ... The building will be renamed back to its original name of 'Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe Center.' (1956) This will go into effect on Monday, Jan. 2, 2023.”
