Currents News | Parish Celebrates 120 years: Bishop Brennan Signs Anniversary Committee Sashes @CurrentsNY | Uploaded 2 weeks ago | Updated 1 hour ago
At another parish anniversary celebration in Jamaica, Queens, the faithful were so grateful Brooklyn Bishop Robert Brennan was there... he was signing autographs!
Bishop Brennan helped ring in 120 years at Saint Joseph’s — a parish that first began in 1904 when the Bishop of Brooklyn helped the growing Polish community buy an old colonial house to use as a temporary church.
While the parish finished building their actual church three years later, they never forgot that it was the Bishop of Brooklyn who gave them the first down payment for their spiritual home.
So, members of the anniversary committee had Bishop Brennan sign their sashes.
