Visitation Church Seeks Revival Under New Evangelical Plan
In Red Hook, Visitation Church trustees, led by Father Claudio Antecini, collaborate with the evangelical group Koinonia John the Baptist to revive the church from debt and decline. A candlelit testimony night marks a shift toward a more open worship style as parish life aims to restore a historic Gothic landmark once central to the Irish Italian community.
