If you happen to be visiting houston one location i would suggest is to visit the Annunciation Catholic Church. Here is some breif info about the Annunciation Catholic Church:
Arguably Houston’s most historic church, Antioch Missionary Baptist was founded by nine former slaves just months after June 19, 1865. (Known as Juneteenth, that was the day Texans learned of the Emancipation Proclamation, two years after it was signed by President Abraham Lincoln.) The Gothic Revival building was completed in 1879. And while it has many architectural details to admire, its most prominent feature is the neon “Jesus Saves” sign.
Annunciation Catholic Church was the second Catholic Church established in
Houston and was an outgrowth of the original St Vincent’s established in 1839.
It was the work of the Very Rev. Joseph Querat, a canon of the Cathedral in
Lyons, France and a missionary to Texas from 1852 -1878.
