March 3, 2025, Washington, D.C. – Cardinal Wilton Gregory, who retired in January 2025 after serving as Archbishop of Washington, D.C., since 2019, recalls the Catholic roots he found in his native Chicago. Before he was a Catholic, young Wilton Gregory was inspired to be a priest by the priests of St. Carthage Parish and the Adrian Dominican Sisters who taught him there.
