Pastor Cecil Henry partners with Brooklyn DA in the fight against gun violence

As a community church, Calvary strives to bridge the gap to help meet the needs in our community by collaborating with social and political organizations.  On Tuesday, May 25, 2021, our Pastor Cecil Henry, President of the 77th Precinct United Clergy Council, joined with Brooklyn District Attorney, Eric Gonzalez, in the fight against gun violence.   

Brooklyn’s District Attorney Gonzalez stated that the partnership with the Clergy Councils is vital to help eradicate violence in our communities.  “Finding community-based solutions to violence must be a priority in our fight against gun violence. I believe our faith leaders have an important role to play and can help us turn these crime upticks around because they have the experience, credibility and the resources to support victims of crime and to reach vulnerable youth and set them on a better path”
