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.
