St. Monica Catholic Church is the first Catholic Church founded for African Americans in Kansas City in 1910. St. Katherine Drexel provided the funding to establish a mission and school for “the education in religion and secular knowledge for Colored People.” The former school and church built in 1913 is still used today.
