From our earliest days of circuit-riding priests to our roots in the Carolina Gold Rush, the Diocese of Charlotte stands on the shoulders of countless missionary priests, consecrated religious, and faithful lay men and women who built up the Church in western North Carolina.
Thanks to their sacrifices, hard work and devotion, our diocese was born and has been blessed by God over these past 50 years.
A brief video summarizing this history has premiered in time for Easter.
Produced as part of the diocese’s 50th anniversary celebration, it is the latest in a series of commemorative materials the diocese is creating this year to inform and inspire the faithful as we celebrate our “Faith More Precious Than Gold.”
