Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha, Virgin

Blessed Kateri Tekawitha will be Canonized a Saint in October 2012. She was born in Auriesville, New York. She was a Mohawk Indian Maiden, who heard the early 17th Century Jesuits preach about Jesus and Catholicism. She was a Convert to Catholicism, and emigrated to Canada. She spent hours praying in front of the Blessed Sacrament. When she died the scars, from small pox completely disappeared. Her Feast Day is July 14th.

Blessed Kateri Tekawitha, pray for us, now, and at the hour of death. Amen.
