The Story of St. Kateri

De: Emily Cavins

Narrado por: LB Neibaur

Even before Kateri Tekakwitha’s canonization on October 21, 2012, many had been inspired by the story of the young Native American mystic who lived in the Mohawk Valley during the 17th century. With Emily Cavins's skill for weaving together historical facts and a compelling story, listeners will discover Kateri’s path to sainthood against the backdrop of her life as a Native American in New York.

These chapters will reveal:

• What led to Kateri’s desire to become a Christian
• Her piety and self-denial in the face of persecution and illness
• Her impact on the Catholic Mohawk community
• The long road to sainthood, including two miracles attributed to Kateri

More than just a compelling story of Kateri’s short life, listeners will also learn how to avail themselves of Kateri’s intercession, why Kateri has become known as the patron saint of the environment, and of her connection to St. Francis of Assisi.
