Their footsteps still lead somewhere.
They lived in an America that often refused to see them. Some were born into slavery. One crossed an ocean to be ordained. Each answered God’s call with courage, and each has a cause for sainthood advancing in the Church today.
Through historians, clergy, religious sisters and people whose lives they still touch, this six-part series traces their struggles, their faith, and the legacy they left behind. Premiering during Black Catholic History Month, with a new story each month.
“People need to know who these people are, for our good and the good of all of His Church.”
