At least when I was growing up there tended to be the German, French, Irish, Polish, Italian church and the newer churches that had no prevailing ethnic flavor. Other than a visiting priest from Africa once a year for Missionary Sunday, all priests were white as were the parishioners. I don't know about the current situation but historically the indigenous tribes sent expeditions east to bring back 'Black Robes' and got a mix of French and Italian Jesuits. I think it's the oldest Catholic church in town but Francis Xavier was built in 1892 and is old school with very nice frescoes. The associated high school is Loyola. When I asked a Catholic friend if he went there he expressed negative views about the Jesuits and their works. The Jebs have always been controversial.
