Felix Varela – 3/11/10 http://netny.net/currents/video/stories/brooklyn-saint-rev-felix-varela-31110/ http://netny.net/currents/video/stories/brooklyn-saint-rev-felix-varela-31110/#comments Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:07:14 +0000 admin http://netny.net/currents/video/stories/brooklyn-saint-rev-felix-varela-31110/ Here’s a pop quiz for you: can you name the local priest who once appeared on a postage stamp?

He’s Fr. Felix Varela – and his image on a stamp is just one fascinating fact that came up at St. James Cathedral this past weekend. It was for a presentation on this priest who is now on his journey to Sainthood.

It’s part of a series on Brooklyn saints that the diocese is hosting – and as a result, now Fr. Varela becomes part of our series, “Saints in the City.”
