ND hosts joint conference of national Black Catholic clergy and religious

The annual joint conference of the national organizations for Black Catholic clergy, women religious, deacons and seminarians was held on campus July 24 to 28. The conference’s theme was “Walk Together Children," bringing participants together to focus on reflection, study, conversation, planning and prayer. The event was also featured in Today's Catholic.
