Directions: to reach the Presbyterian Church at 85 S. Oxford St. in Brooklyn, Arrive at the C train stop at Lafayette Ave. The C train runs along the A line so people taking the A into Brooklyn will get off at Jay Street/Boro Hall and take the C two more stops—the church is essentially at the end of the block of the station; It is also possible to take the G to Fulton Street, walk two blocks north from the stop to the church.
