The Diocese of Brooklyn’s Lenten Pilgrimage continued March 17 with pilgrims making their way to Saint Ephrem’s parish in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn for an evening prayer.
Brooklyn Bishop Robert Brennan led the benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, marking the last service of the day at the church.
Earlier that day, the pilgrims gathered for a morning Mass with students of Saint Ephrem’s Catholic Academy, a spiritual rosary, and private prayer.
Bishop Brennan’s message to the pilgrims at the end of the day encouraged them to anchor themselves to Jesus Christ, calling him the only hope that wouldn’t disappoint.
The next stop of the Lenten Pilgrimage will be at the Co-Cathedral of St. Joseph on March 19. The Prospect Heights parish is one of six diocesan Jubilee shrine churches faithful can visit during the pilgrimage.
Currents News will have full coverage of that stop on March 19.
