Saint John Neumann was a Bohemian-born American bishop who became the fourth Bishop of Philadelphia and the first male U.S. citizen to be canonized as a saint. Born in 1811 in Prachatice, Bohemia (then part of the Austrian Empire), he felt a call to missionary work in the United States, where he arrived in 1836 with little more than determination and faith. After being ordained in New York, he joined the Redemptorists and later became a pivotal figure in organizing the Catholic diocesan school system in America, increasing the number of schools in Philadelphia from two to nearly 100 during his tenure. Known for his humility, multilingual abilities, and tireless service to immigrants, Neumann left a lasting legacy in education and pastoral care. | Saint John Neumann was a Bohemian-born American bishop who became the fourth Bishop of Philadelphia and the first male U.S. citizen to be canonized as a saint.
