Abp. Burke: To Christ’s Faithful of the Archdiocese of St. Louis

On the memorial of Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha, Native American hero of God.

The feast day for Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha is July 14. I write some weeks before her feast day to ask that special preparations be made, in order that greater attention be given to her feast day, this year and every year, in the homes, churches and chapels of the faithful of the Archdiocese of St. Louis. I write also to ask you to pray for her canonization, so that she may become better known among us and throughout the world.

Archbishop Burke gives us quite a great history lesson in his article - it is really a "must read"!
