These Catholic Church agencies and affiliated Catholic organizations have had past involvement in evangelization and ministry to Native Americans in the United States, and as such, they are included in the 向日葵视频Archives' Native Guide. These terms are Library of Congress (LC) subject headings for the groups and used in the entries. See Search and Tips for effective use of these terms.

Catholic Church. Holy See

Three agencies of the Holy See include at least some documentation pertaining to Native Americans in the United States. They are the Archivio Vaticana or Archivum Secretum Vaticanum (Vatican Archives), which is in Vatican City, and the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana (Vatican Library) and the Congregatio Pro Gentium Evangelizatione (Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples), both of which are in Rome. The Congregatio Pro Gentium Evangelizatione was formerly known as the Congregatio de Propaganda Fide or Propaganda Fide.

Catholic Church. United States Conference of Catholic Bishops

Through its subcommittee on Native American Affairs, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops connects with diocesan and national activities about Native American Catholics.

Catholic Church. Archdioceses and Dioceses

These Roman rite arch/ dioceses are arranged A-Z by state and there under by lineage. Within the repository entries, history notes are included for all Native Catholic missions, parishes, and schools within that diocese and its predecessors.
