First Presbyterian Church, located at 124 Henry Street, between Clark and Love Lane, has concluded its search for a new senior pastor.

Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Concluding a nationwide search lasting more than three years, The Reverend Dr. Flora Wilson Bridges will be installed as senior pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn on Sunday, Jan. 30, at 5 p.m.

Dr. Wilson Bridges previously was a professor at the School of Theology and Ministry of Seattle University. She will be the first woman to serve as senior pastor at First Presbyterian in the church’s almost 200 year (it was founded in 1822) history. First Presbyterian is proud of the diversity, in terms of economic status, race, and sexuality, of its congregation.

    She looks like Della Reese from “Touched by an Angel.” I hope she does well in her new ministry.

    I hope that under her leadership, the church will become a better neighbor and obey the law as it pertains to the bike lane in front of the church.

    Bike lanes are stupid. Walk the city, it’s a beautiful place.

    You are stupid, bikes enable one to see the “beautiful” city a lot faster.
