Jesuit High School alumni are invited to join us on November 21 at 6:00 p.m. for Mass at the FAH! If you did not attend a Jesuit school, you are also welcome.

Friday, November 15 | 7:00 p.m. | St. Michael the Archangel in Cary

Christians, Jews, and Muslims look to the Holy Land as a place of sacred events, holy sites, and profound hopes. Yet the prevailing image of Israel and Palestine today is one of violence, injustice, and deep suffering. In response, Catholics in the United States are joining with people of other faiths to pray and to work for a just peace in the region; one in which human dignity is protected, peoples are reconciled, and peace prevails

Black Catholic History Month

Celebrating the long history and proud heritage of Black Catholics 

On July 24, 1990, the National Black Catholic Clergy Caucus of the United States designated November as Black Catholic History Month, which is a time to celebrate and recall in a special way the saints and souls of Africa and the African Diaspora. 

According to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, there are over 3 million African American Catholics in the U.S. today, but Black Catholics trace their faith history back to Christian antiquity long before other nations heard the Good News. In the Acts of the Apostles (8:26-40), we read of the conversion of the Ethiopian Eunuch by Philip the Deacon. The early church also saw three popes who were born in Africa: Saints Victor I, Melchiade, and Gelasius I. During Black Catholic History Month, we also remember Black Catholic Saints like Saint Cyprian, Moses the Black, Athanasius, Perpetua, Felicitas, Mary of Egypt, and Augustine of Hippo. 

This month also provides an opportunity to learn about the Black Catholics who are currently in the process of canonization. These Black Catholics are aptly called "The Saintly Six": Servant of God Sister Thea Bowman, Venerable Henriette Delille, Venerable Pierre Toussaint, Venerable Mother Mary Langs, Venerable Father Augustus Tolton, and Servant of God Julia Greeley.

Together We Thrive:
Help Sustain Our Faith Community


You might think, "I don't have enough to give."But giving isn't just for those with steady incomes—it's an opportunity to grow in trust and commitment to God and our faith in Him, even as students. 

The Duke Catholic Center isn't like a typical parish with families supporting it every week, and the DCC is not funded by the university or the diocese. In fact, over 85% of our funding comes directly from individual contributions made by students, parents, and alumni. 

Whether it's $5, $10, or the price of your weekly coffee, a regular weekly or monthly financial commitment shows your love for this community and keeps it thriving for all of us! Let's join together in intentional giving and make an impact today.
