Serving Christ and Connecting Catholics in Western North Carolina
Black History Month is officially observed every February, but there’s something unfortunate about that. Don’t get me wrong. It’s great to recognize the contributions of Black Americans.

For this Jubilee Year the Church has been given a beautiful, multilingual hymn, “Pilgrims of Hope.” If you participate in any Jubilee events, whether local or international, you will no doubt hear the uplifting melody and inspiring lyrics of this hymn.
