Did you know that Baltimore’s St. Peter Claver Catholic Church is the oldest congregation in the world to be named after St. Peter Claver? It is also the third oldest African American Catholic church in the country. Join us today to learn about this historic place, including the saint it is named after and the church’s remarkable clergymen and congregants who advocated for peace and for Civil Rights. Thanks for watching and we’ll be back with another Five Minute Histories video soon!
