The Catholic Church acknowledges that the Book of Hebrews was written to the Hebrews.

It was written to the Jewish Christian converts in and around Jerusalem shortly before the Roman-Jewish war of AD 66-73.

You mean the 'church'...It was written to the church...Maybe you can explain then why Paul addressed those other epistles to the various churches instead of to the Gentiles...
