Journey to Justice Program after Mass on Sep. 27

To continue our conversations about race and how we, as Catholics, are called to act for social justice, the Young Professionals are hosting a discussion with one of our fellow parishioners Alicia Washington on September 27. After the 11:15 AM Mass, Alicia Washington will share her experiences as a black woman in America, which will be moderated by Fr. John Gribowich.

Alicia grew up in Dallas, TX, and is a graduate of two Ivy-league institutions. As she has gone through life she has had experiences that have reassured her of her minority status but has also had important allies that have lifted her up.

Please join us as we continue to learn and grow in our own community with these deep conversations.

Afterwards we will be hosting a follow up discussion in the rectory garden for up to 10 people. Please respond below if you are interested in attending the follow-up discussion. Social distancing, and masks will be required.

9/11 Brooklyn Heights Interfaith Observance

The traditional 9/11 memorial service that many of us have attended on the Promenade in years past will not be held this year, but members of the Brooklyn Heights Clergy Association will be present on the Promenade at Montague Street and ribbons and prayer cards will be distributed to honor those lost that day 19 years ago. More details are below:

Friday, September 11 between 8:30-10:00am and 5:30-7:00pm 

Brooklyn Heights Promenade at Montague Street

So many events this year have invited us to rethink life and community in the wake of the current global pandemic and racial uprisings — that includes gathering to remember those we lost 19 years ago to a horrific terrorist attack. While health concerns prevent us from holding a traditional service this year our 9-11 memorial will be no less meaningful. Please join the Brooklyn Heights Clergy Association any time between 8:30-10 am and 5:30-7 pm to leave a written tribute on the Promenade at Montague Street. In our sacred distant way, we will honor those we lost and we will remember.

Ribbons and prayer blank cards will be distributed at the corner of Montague Street and the Promenade during the following times: 8:30am-10:00am & 5:30pm-7:00pm
