Look! A Black Catholic!
Check out this blog by a convert to the Catholic faith, a twenty-something African American young lady. She states that it is very unusual to be both Catholic and Black in the United States. It's interesting because Catholicism is growing by leaps and bounds in Africa right now. Stop by her blog and give her the old Tiber Swim Club Welcome!
"I was a young black woman in the South and of all places I felt at home in a Catholic church. Once I accepted Christ's call, I delved deeply into Catholicism to truly understand and grow in my Faith. I didn't choose to be Catholic...Christ told me I was Catholic; from that point, there was no turning back and a year after I accepted my conversion I was blessed to be accepted in communion with Christ and confirmed as a Roman Catholic."
