So many things to do this weekend in Port Richmond, Staten Island.

First...St. Philip's Baptist Church will be having a Community Festival. Make sure to stop by on Saturday, May 2, 2015 at 77 Bennett Street!

St. Philips is a beautiful, historical church located in Port Richmond. Here are a few photos of the church:
