Movie - Tolton Speaks

Join us for the Naperville screening of “Tolton Speaks,” the documentary about Venerable Fr. Augustus Tolton’s journey to priesthood. Born into slavery and prohibited from entering any seminary in the United States, Fr. Tolton defied social expectations and the odds to become America’s first recognized African-American Roman Catholic priest.

Learn about this man’s extraordinary story through expert interviews, historical documents and his words as told through never-before-seen letters. It’s a film you cannot afford to miss!

Brought to Naperville by Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church (Naperville), Benedictine University, and the Tolton Spirituality Center.

Tickets are $10 and are nonrefundable.

Movie screening will take place in Goodwin Hall Auditorium- 5730 College Rd.

Signage will direct you to parking at the event.
