Cycling for vocations in the birthplace of American Catholicism

Catholics in southern Maryland are taking personal responsibility to address the shortage of vocations through cycling activities. Greg Erlandson of Catholic News Service reported that ordinary Catholics in the region are engaging in these efforts to support the Church.

The activities take place in an area with deep historical roots, such as St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Bryantown, Maryland. Established in 1793, the parish has a long history including an original brick church built in 1845 that was destroyed by fire in 1863 and later rebuilt in 1966.
