I’m raising support for the Barrow Mansion through Hudson Gives.

The Mansion is owned by St. Matthew’s and operated separately as a nonprofit. It houses my church office and serves the wider Jersey City community through recovery meetings, arts, events, and community gatherings.

Please consider making a gift today:

We gather to remember a life that touched so many. ❤️

Join us as we give thanks for Angelo Estrada—a neighbor, a friend, and a servant of this community.

Followed by a reception at the Barrow Mansion

Angelo’s love for this neighborhood continues through a memorial bench and support for our food pantry—one of the many ways he cared for others.

If you’re able, you can be part of that legacy: https://gofund.me/1d6bd971f

Come remember. Come give thanks. Come be part of the story that continues.
