Sharing the Gospel and promoting evangelization in the Black American community.
What we do
The Office of Black Catholic Ministries fosters the rich diversity of the Black Catholic Community within the Archdiocese of Baltimore. Its mission is to evangelize, enhance and celebrate the contributions of persons of African descent and the gifts they have to offer the Church and society. The office seeks to be a representative body composed of laity, religious and clergy dedicated to fostering the spiritual, educational, economic and cultural lives of persons of African descent in the archdiocese, reaching out to Catholics and non-Catholics, those who are active in the church as well as the un-churched. The Office of Black Catholic Ministries cooperates with the bishops, parish and archdiocesan leadership bodies, offices and agencies to carry out its evangelizing mission.
