To lend credence to the "veil of secrecy" tagline that I use for this blog, I was told today by a local reporter who inquired about the three buildings of the former St. Andrew's Episcopal Church that the diocese has put up for sale the following: when he asked for information about the buildings he was told that by an agent of the realtor (Realty USA) that she could only speak with him after receiving permission from the diocese.
This same reporter has called the diocesan offices to speak with either the bishop or Canon Lewis, but these diocesan officials will not speak with him. Our Senior Warden met the same stonewall when our parish was supposedly in negotiations with the diocese. Unreturned phone calls were the norm. Hence, the veil of secrecy is real, contrary to what DCNY officials say to the contrary.
