About St. Jerome Catholic Church

Since 1901, St. Jerome Catholic Church has been a cornerstone of faith and fellowship in the East Flatbush, Brooklyn community. Our journey began with the first Mass celebrated by Reverend Thomas F. Lynch, under the guidance of Bishop Charles Edward McDonnell.

Today, we are a vibrant, growing congregation enriched by the diverse cultures of our parishioners from the Caribbean, Central and South America, and Africa. Together, we celebrate our shared faith through daily Mass, spiritual growth, and community service.

Join us in worship and experience the warmth of our community.
