Wilton Cardinal Gregory, retired Archbishop of Washington,<\/a> was the main celebrant of a Mass marking National Black Catholic History Month on Nov. 8 at 10 a.m. at St. Joseph\u2019s Church in Wilmington.<\/a><\/p>\n

One of the most prominent leaders of the American Catholic church arrived with a simple message for the Black Catholic community in Wilmington.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe first thing I want to say to the people of St. Joseph\u2019s is thank you for your fidelity. Thank you for the experience of African American spiritual energy that you demonstrate in this local church and that you have maintained during some very difficult moments in our history. Thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n
