In this month of remembrance of the faithful departed, CatholicTV is presenting a special episode of its travel show “Catholic Destinations” filmed at St. Augustine Chapel in South Boston, MA. The chapel is home to St. Augustine cemetery which is the first Catholic burial ground in New England. CatholicTV is a nationally-broadcasted television network headquartered near Boston. CatholicTV streams its broadcast simultaneously, 24 hours a day at www.CatholicTV.com
On this episode, Bishop John Dooher provides history and insight into those who paved the way for the Catholic Church to grow in America. This episode of Catholic Destinations takes an interesting look into the early history of the Catholic Church in New England which included the persecution of Catholics, a Massachusetts law forbidding Catholic priests to practice under penalty of imprisonment, and even death. Catholic Destinations will air throughout the remainder of November at these times (EST): Monday at 4:30AM; Friday at 4:30PM and Sunday at 2:30PM.
The episode can also be viewed online now by visiting http://www.catholictv.com/shows/default.aspx?seriesID=21&videoID=650
