SOUTH JAMAICA — It has the name of a candidate for sainthood, and now, once again, the voices that carry the Sister Thea Bowman Mass Choir’s gospel tunes are based in the Diocese of Brooklyn.

After spending 26 years in the Diocese of Rockville Centre, the choir — touted by founder-director Darcel Wilamowski as the first Catholic gospel choir in the U.S. — is returning to its Diocese of Brooklyn roots.
