Our pastoral ministry of Holy Cross Catholic Church (Durham, NC) opened National Black Catholic History Month with the November 3rd tribute “Honoring Our Elders” in the parish. Our Lady of the Angels Province friar and pastor of Holy Cross, Fr. Bart Karwacki, OFM Conv. opened the celebration with The Prayer of the Elderly Christian. A panel of elders described their experiences as Black Catholics, after being led in by an African drummer. (video 1) (video 2)
