On November 18 Brooklyn Bishop Robert Brennan led a celebration for the patron saint of Puerto Rico, Our Lady of Providencia.
The devotion of the faithful to Our Lady of Divine Providence first began in Italy in the 13th Century before locals began migrating to Spain and then Puerto Rico.
In the diocese of immigrants Bishop Brennan spoke to young people about carrying on this long tradition of faith in advance of the official Feast Day of Our Lady of Divine Providence, which is November 19.
