The Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament were founded by Katharine Drexel herself in 1923. Both John Neumann and Katharine Drexel have ties to St. John the Evangelist Church in downtown Philadelphia. Katharine Drexel had her first holy communion at St. John’s and John Neumann lived on site while he was the Bishop of Philadelphia.
