Product Details
Kateri Tekakwitha: Mohawk Maiden is an inspiring story for young people. Her story is told in this 178 page paperback that measures 5-1/4”w x 8”H. Kateri Tekakwitha: Mohawk Maiden tells the inspiring story of Saint Kateri, a holy young Indian woman, who was converted to Christianity by the French missionaries led by Saint Isaac Joques during the 1600s in New York. Readers learn that Kateri's mother was a very devout Christian woman who, after being captured by the Iroquois, was not allowed to baptize her daughter. Kateri's whole family died of smallpox, and she was adopted by a chief who was very anti-Christian.
Kateri Tekakwitha: Mohawk Maiden continues with showing she was baptized and converted by the missionaries. This led to Kateri becoming ostracized from the tribe. With the help of the priest, she made a daring escape, and thereafter lived a life devoted to God. Denied her desire to become a nun, she declined marriage and lived as a single woman with deep faith, offering her sufferings and life to Christ. She died at the age of twenty-four and is affectionately known as the "Lily of the Mohawks." Kateri was canonized by Saint Pope John Paul II in 2012.
