St. Kateri Tekakwitha
One of the great treasures of the Church in America is St. Kateri Tekakwitha, whose feast we celebrate on July 14.
As the first Native American saint, her life reminds us that holiness can take root in every culture, every land, and every heart that says yes to Christ. Father Patrick Lynch, MIC, teaches us about Kateri's courage, purity, and deep love for Jesus.
Then Fr. Mark Baron, MIC, present the next episode of the new series, “The Marian Route to USA 250: One Nation Under God's Mercy,” this time focusing on Maryland, where a new chapter began, one where faith, freedom, and the hope of a nation under God's mercy began to take root.
