Church of San Pedro Claver, Cartagena, Colombia, 1989
Photograph by O. Louis Mazzatenta
Founded in 1603, this Spanish colonial church holds the remains of Father Claver, who ministered to enslaved Africans when Cartagena, Colombia, had the largest slave market in the Caribbean. He cared for the sick and dying and baptized tens of thousands.
