Honduras 100 Church Construction Time Laps - Video
Demolition of Holy Trinity Lithuanian Church on the corner of East South and South Meade streets in Wilkes-Barre, set to begin Monday, was delayed due to weather.
Stell Enterprises construction vehicles were parked outside of the church and a chain-link fence wrapped around the perimeter, but the building was untouched on Tuesday.
The foreman for Hadley Construction, the company subcontracted by Stell Enterprises, was on site Tuesday afternoon and said the demolition was held off due to the cold weather. The construction crews planned to tear down the church from the top down, but the cold temperatures hindered the crew from being able to begin on time.
Holy Trinity was closed in May 2010, after then-Scranton Diocese Bishop Joseph F. Martino announced that 72 parish communities in northern Luzerne County would be consolidated into 33 parishes over the next three years.
Shame on you Bishop was painted on a piece of cardboard attached to the front door, a message from those disgruntled with the demolition.
According to the foreman, who did not give his name, the razing is scheduled to begin this morning.

The annual Martin Luther King Jr. March for Peace and Celebration in Lafayette on Monday will be shadowed by a smaller, parallel march protesting the traditional event's new choice of destination: Flatirons Community Church.
Lafayette resident BK Loren started contacting friends in recent days, hoping to stir up those who will voice their objections to the MLK event's association with the massive church that in March 2013 took a public stand against same-sex marriage.
Beyond that, Loren and her associates their group is too new to have a name, she said also are very uncomfortable with Flatirons' spreading real estate footprint in the city.
"What we are hoping for is to create a movement for a 21st century notion of civil rights. That's our overall goal," said Loren, who married her partner in Iowa in 2009.

Lafayette's MLK event sparks protest over Flatirons Community Church
BLUE MOUNTAIN, MISS.January 14, 2015The 1964 rebuilding of the Antioch Missionary Baptist Church, which was destroyed for hosting civil rights activities, will be commemorated with a marker on the Mississippi Freedom Trail on Saturday, January 17, at 11 am. The unveiling will take place at 3651 County Road 700 in Blue Mountain. Several Oberlin alumni who took part in the church rebuilding will attend, and the event is open to the public.
The Mississippi Freedom Trail was launched in 2011 during the 50thanniversary of the Freedom Riders. Its mission is to commemorate the people and places of the Civil Rights era. The Carpenters for Christmas/Antioch Missionary Baptist Church is the 17th marker on the Trail, and it has been funded by Oberlin College alumni.
In October of 1964, Antioch Missionary Baptist Church was destroyed by fire after Fannie Lou Hamer led a Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party rally there. It was one of nearly 40 churchesin Mississippi that were burned or bombed during a six-month period. Churches had played a key role in the Mississippi Freedom Summer, which challenged the state's racial segregation and its exclusion of black citizens from voting. Civil rights activitiessuch as meetings, freedom election polling places, and Freedom Schoolsoften took place in these churches, which then became a target for segregationists.
A group of students and faculty from Oberlin College hoped to attract national media attention to the destruction of churches in the South, and they chose to rebuild Antioch Missionary Baptist Church to highlight the problem. Nearly two dozen Oberlin students and three faculty members traveled from Ohio to Blue Mountain, Miss., to rebuild the church with donated materials and volunteer labor. Calling themselves Carpenters for Christmas, they began construction on December 22. By Christmas Day, they had built a foundation and four walls, and the church's pastor, the Rev. John R. McDonald, was able to lead a Christmas service in the new structure. By January 2 the building was operable again as a church and meeting place for civil rights activities. The Carpenters for Christmas project succeeded in attracting widespread national media attention and increasing awareness of the need to protect Southern churches who supported civil rights.
