11:03Now PlayingDiscover the deep, hidden Catholic and Marian roots of American history. Filmed at the Basilica of the Assumption in Baltimore, Maryland—the first Catholic cathedral built in the United States—Fr. Mark Baron explores how English Catholics carried a fierce devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary across the Atlantic after fleeing religious persecution in their homeland.
Learn how this traditional Marian sentiment shaped the naming of "Terra Maria" (Maryland) as an extension of "Our Lady's Dowry," and how the colony laid the groundwork for the ideal of religious freedom later enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.
In this new series, "A Marian Route to America," as the nation celebrates its 250th birthday, we invite you to explore the forgotten spiritual and providential forces from a Marian lens, that helped form the United States of America. Join us as we begin a journey tracing the English, Spanish, and French Catholic stories to discover how America grew not just under God, but under Mary's mantle.
