List of Americans venerated in the Catholic Church

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(Redirected fromList of American Catholic saints and beatified people)

For non-Catholic American saints, seeCategory:American saints. For more information on the process of sainthood in the Roman Catholic Church, seeCanonization.

TheBasilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, inWashington, D.C., is the largest Catholic church in theUnited States. A special hall in the crypt level of the Basilica contains statues of American saints.

TheCatholic Church recognizes some deceased Catholics assaints,beati, andvenerabili andServants of God. Some of these figures are significantly associated with what was at the time or subsequently became theUnited States.

Catholicism in the United States began with the first European explorations and colonization of the Americas. Indeed,Columbus's expedition of 1492 included Catholic priests among the crew. Catholic missionaries were some of the first Europeans to reach many parts ofFrench North America andBritish North America in the east, andSpanish North America in theSouthwestern United States.

Several American Catholics have been considered for sainthood over the past 50 years. Catholics continue to contribute to American religious life. Most of these Americans were born after 1850, though the majority of those who have been canonized so far were not.
