Welcome!
We are One Family of Faith in Jesus Christ. We are the merged faith community of St. Martin of Tours, founded in 1906, and Our Lady of Lourdes, founded in 1872, both located in Bushwick, Brooklyn.
We are rooted in God's word and the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. We value and celebrate our diversity, faith, hope and love in the Lord Jesus.
It is our belief that the Holy Spirit guides us through the different moments of our parish life, and that the Blessed Mother of God assists us in this journey of faith.

The central Catholic act of worship is attending the Mass, or Divine Liturgy. The Mass is divided into two parts: the Liturgy of the Word, and the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
During the first part, the priest leads us in prayer and songs, praising God, thanking Him, and asking Him for forgiveness. We hear Scripture readings, the priest gives a talk, and then we all pronounce the core principles of our faith.
In the second part, the priest says the blessing, transforming bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ. We all say the "Our Father" prayer, and then receive communion. Finally, there is a closing prayer and final blessing.
