Mary Joseph Rogers Biography

 

Mother Mary Joseph Rogers founded the Maryknoll Sisters, the first American-based Catholic foreign missions society for women.

“The Encyclopedia of Christianity in the United States outlines the myriad roles Christianity has played and continues to play. This masterful five-volume reference work includes biographies of major figures in the Christian church in the United States, influential religious documents and Supreme Court decisions, and information on theology and theologians, denominations, faith-based organizations, immigration, art—from decorative arts and film to music and literature—evangelism and crusades, the significant role of women, racial issues, civil religion, and more.”

Publisher Rowman & Littlefield’s overview.

My contributions to The Encyclopedia of Christianity in the United States focus on women who inspired Christians worldwide because of their obedience, sacrifice and faith.

All is well,

Lisa
