In September, the Catholic Diocese in Manchester announced plans to close the St. Francis Xavier Church in Nashua.

It was part of a consolidation effort.

The Church says it doesn't have enough priests and St. Francis is expensive to keep up.

The building's been described as a beautiful piece of architecture.

It was originally built as a cathedral over a hundred years ago.

But a group of parishioners in Nashua wants to buy the church from the Diocese.

Randall Wilbert is one of the organizers.
