Bishop Robert Brennan prayed for the dearly departed during a Mass at Holy Cross Cemetery in East Flatbush.
It’s part of an annual tradition for All Souls’ Day, where the shepherd of Brooklyn, along with the auxiliary bishops, hold services at Catholic cemeteries in Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island.
Bishop Brennan said the prayers to those who have passed are just another important part of our faith.
After Mass, Bishop Brennan also honored those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, blessing a monument to 18 Medal of Honor recipients.
