It was the trip of a lifetime.  It was not a vacation, but a mission trip to advocate for justice and the respect of the Black Catholics, worshiping and serving in the U.S. for over 400 years. We have kept our eyes on God and the unrequited love from our fellow church members, but hatred, prejudice and discrimination remain.
