One week after the discovery of the desecration and burglary of St. Augustine’s tabernacle, Bishop Robert Brennan will bless the church as part of a Penitential Rite of Reparation that will take place during St. Augustine’s 5 p.m. Mass on Saturday, June 4.
The tabernacle that was stolen from St. Augustine Church, Park Slope, was featured in 2013 on the NET-TV series “City of Churches.”
The sacred tabernacle made of silver and gold dating back to the 1890s at historic St. Augustine Parish was stolen overnight Friday in a brazen burglary that left consecrated Communion, housed inside, scattered within the rubble.
