Born to a wealthy family in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on November 28, 1858, Drexel entered religious life at the age of 31 with a missionary heart particularly passionate to serve indigenous people and people of color.

Lessons from Twelve Wicker Baskets

By Steier Tips, Steier Wire

Launched in February 2022, Twelve Wicker Baskets, the Steier Group’s podcast, broadly explores all the many ways God meets the spiritual and temporal needs of parishes, Catholic schools, dioceses and beyond.
