    St. Teresa of Avila Church - Brooklyn
    M T: I still miss St. Teresa of Avila. I was the Director of Music & Liturgy there for 16 years (1992-2008)...music director(organist-cantor-choirmaster 16 years & liturgist 13 years). Some of the most beautiful and exquisite pictorial stained glass windows anywhere in greater NYC. The late Fr. Don Kavanagh told me they were appraised in early 1990s & just the side windows worth over a million dollars back then. One of the great church architect, Patrick Charles Keely, designs. It was altered many times, with the front open portico added & then enclosed as church vestibule. Bits art deco added so it became a mix of designs. It has a rich history. The church originally had not one but two pipe organs, one in front and the big Midmer gallery organ which was replaced by a truly wonderful Casavant in 1934, with a small keyboard attached for playing the 10 tower bells from the Meneely Bros. Foundry of Troy, NY. The carillon at West Point was fashioned after St. Teresas tower bells. The Commandant visited and was so taken with the St. Teresa bells that he asked that they be model for West Points bells. The organ was placed back into the care and curatorship of Casavant in 1996 and prior to my departure, we were close to a full restoration of this beautiful organ, under the pastorship of the wonderful Fr. Tom Ahern. Sadly, he was transferred & less than a year later, I was gone. I hope and pray the organ and that gorgeous church have been receiving care, restoration and renovation since becoming part of the Co-Cathedral of St. Joseph. I have so many, many fond memories of too many folks to list, but the late Fr. Don Kavanaugh, Fr. Phil Pizzo (retired) who become a kind and loyal friend, and the amazing and very, very kind Fr. Tom Ahern, also the late great St. Teresa School principal, Dr. Ken Cottrell. I enjoy socializing many times with him and Fr. Pizzo. So many lovely and wonderful people there during my 16 years. How I miss it and that beautiful pipe organ. Ive forgotten the names, but each tower bell was cast with the name of a saint and a scripture passage, the largest bell being the St. Teresa of Avila bell. I hope they got the bells & tower clock restored and bells singing again. It was a joy to play them for weddings and feasts and the sad knell of the St. Teresa Bell for funerals and solemn times. The church is worth a visit to see the unique architecture and, most especially the gorgeous windows. In the vestibule area where the choir door is, there are two visible and two not visible non-religious ornamental stained glass windows that are stunning. They are the same design but each in different color palate. Also on the front wall of the vestibule & what was originally the baptistry (religious articles & book shop when I was there) are other glorious stained glass windows.

    Good Shepherd Lutheran Church - Brooklyn
    B KP: Evangelical Lutheran churches are a disgrace. In our area, they dont even teach from the Bible. How does this church justify using $15K for a criminal? How many meals could this have provided to a U.S. citizen/family in need?
    New Life Tabernacle Church - Brooklyn
    G G: Beautiful church but not so friendly Pastor or First Lady. I was directed to the church via Google because of the food pantry. While waiting, the First lady decided to argue with a woman that was not mentally stabled. To keep the peace, I kindly explained to the first lady, there was no need to argue with her because it was clear the woman was not mentally stabled. The First lady aggressively stood over me and told me to shut up, and mind my business. I kindly replied (please dont talk to me like that) the first lady then replied (What are you gonna do?) I kindly replied (Nothing). Seeing she was unreasonable and aggressive, I went into the church and kindly explained to the pastor what was going on. You would think the pastor would be kind and understanding (Nope) he was just as rude as well. I kindly said to him ( is this how yall run the church?) The pastor then stood up and aggressively walked over to me like he was going to fight me, so I walked out. As for the pantry system they run, be prepared to stand in the cold for a very long time, (thats including the very elderly) as the First lady casually walks in and out to keep warm even though the church is very spacious. Pantry was supposed to start at 4pm but didnt start until 4:30pm because the Fellowship wanted to mingle and watch the line of 90% elderly people build up at the door.
