AUBURN GRESHAM — In honor of Black History Month, St. Sabina Church has invited author Cornel West to visit during an upcoming Sunday Mass.

At 11:15 a.m. Feb. 22, West will address the St. Sabina congregation.
West is an American philosopher, author and intellectual. He holds an undergraduate degree from Harvard University and a doctorate from Princeton University.
