San Damiano Mission
(Roman Catholic)
21 Nassau Avenue near 15th Street
Brooklyn, N.Y. 11222
http://missionbklyn.org/
San Damiano Mission ("The Mission") was established in
February 2015 and occupies the former Holy Family
Slovak Catholic Church on Nassau Avenue in the Greenpoint area of
Brooklyn. At the heart of The Mission is Pope Francis’ call
to seek those who may feel abandoned, alone, or even disenfranchised
by the Church.
The original occupants of the building, Holy
Family Church, was founded in 1903 to serve the Slovakian population
in Greenpoint,
Brooklyn.
Services were held in the Church of St. Vincent de Paul until
September 4, 1911, when a temporary church, a brick structure
costing $30,000, was opened. The rectory was built at the
same time. In 2011, Holy Family merged with the parish of St. Anthony
of Padua, which earlier had absorbed the parish of St. Alphonsus. |

M.P. Möller, Inc.
Hagerstown, Md. – Opus 1342 (1912)
Tubular-pneumatic action
2 manuals, 11 registers, 6 stops, 6 ranks
The Agreement (Dec. 12, 1911) between M.P. Möller and "The R.C. Slovak
Church" in Brooklyn states that Möller would build a two-manual organ
for a consideration of $1,400. Möller used tubular-pneumatic action to control
six ranks of pipes on a duplex chest. The casing was of the best quartered oak
finished in hard oil, with the Pedal pipes forming the sides of the case. Möller
indicated that the organ would be "complete and ready for use on or before
the first day of March, 1912 or as soon thereafter as possible." The organ
was shipped by rail on March 15, 1912. |
