Sister Thea Bowman

Cause for Canonization

Servant of God Sister Thea Bowman, FSPA, left an indelible mark on her community and on her Church. She lovingly taught young people about the joy of being Christian, she challenged her church to accept her as “fully black and fully Catholic,” she embraced her suffering with a willing spirit and she called all to a living faith. This website is the home base for her cause for canonization. Check back often for updates on the process as well as new reflections from the church.
