Some photos of the interior of the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist. Did you know June is the moth of the Sacred Heart of Jesus? Also there is only one Catholic diocese for the entire state of South Carolina, the Diocese of Charleston. We fall under the archdiocese of Atlanta.
Why is this? Because under British rule the colony of Carolina (which would later be separated in the 1720’s into Georgia and the two Carolinas) was founded on religious freedom for everyone except Catholics. The Brits were afraid of allowing Catholics into the colony for fear of French and Spanish sympathy. Catholics were not allowed to openly worship until 1789.
