The topic of addiction was discussed at a recent meeting of Priestly Fraternity.
More than 150 priests gathered at the Immaculate Conception Center in Douglaston, Queens, on Tuesday for their bi-annual convocation. Clergy from across Brooklyn and Queens meet every spring and fall to discuss their ministries.
This meeting focused on becoming happy, holy, and healthy priests, including a talk on addiction by “Guest House,” a Midwestern treatment center for priests.
Brooklyn Bishop Robert Brennan emphasized the value of this information for the men of faith. The next Diocese of Brooklyn convocation will take place in May.
