Another Oratory for the Institute of Christ the King

The Institute of Christ The King Sovereign Priest has taken over another church in the United States.  It is the Church of St Leo in Columbus, Ohio.  It is a very nice church that has been closed since 1999 because, it is in an area that has become depopulated, and the Diocese felt it could not justify supplying it with a priest.  It has been maintained for the past 20 years by the St Leo Preservation Society, a group that opposed the closure of the church.


Here is the sanctuary.


The original altar has been preserved behind a forward altar, and has beautiful statues of angels, as well as a circular tempietto. 


You can find out a lot more by going to the American website of the ICKSP
