From the archives — Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
In May, we celebrate the role that Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (AANHPIs) have played in our shared history. Shown is a Christmas mass for the Vietnamese community celebrated at St. Michael’s parish, Jersey City in 1989. (Archdiocese of Newark Archives, Catholic Advocate collection)
