Venerable Pierre ToussaintOn Sunday, July 18, 2021, Brother Tyrone Davis, CFC Director of the will give a reflection on the life of Venerable Pierre Toussaint
Pierre Toussaint was born into slavery on June 27, 1766 in Saint-Marc, Artibonite, Haiti. Pierre moved with his master to New York in 1787 where he was apprenticed to a leading hairdresser, and soon became a stylist himself. He was freed from slavery in 1807. He fell in love with Juliette Noel, a slave, purchased her, freed and married her. They turned their home in New York into a shelter for orphans, a credit bureau, employment agency, and a hostel for priests and other poor travelers. To his last days, Pierre Toussaint worked tireless to help anyone who needed it.
This workshop will be presented at 2:00 pm PT via Zoom and is designed for anyone who wants to learn more about this great Catholic notable on the road to sainthood.
All are welcome! -
