The Archdiocese of New York and the state of New York are uniquely blessed, home to an extraordinary number of saints, blesseds, and notable Catholics—one of the highest of any diocese in the United States.

In our latest episode of our new series “Saints of New York,” we explore the inspiring story of Saint Marianne Cope, a German-born religious sister who became a beacon of faith and service around the world.

After immigrating with her family from Germany to Utica in 1839, Marianne entered religious life in Syracuse in 1862 as a Sister of Saint Francis. Renowned for her missionary work among the lepers in Hawaii, this episode highlights her profound impact here in New York, featuring insights from Kristin Barrett-Anderson, Director of the Saint Marianne Cope Shrine and Museum in Syracuse.
