Kateri Tekakwitha, also known by the nickname "She who walks with a limp" in the Iroquois language, and referred to as the "Lily of the Mohawks," is a significant figure in the religious and cultural history of North American Indigenous peoples. Born in 1656 in Ossernenon, along the Mohawk River, which is now situated in the state of New York, Kateri Tekakwitha was a young Mohawk woman who converted to Christianity. Her path to #canonization was marked by a long journey filled with miracles and devotion, ultimately leading to her recognition as a saint by the Catholic Church on October 21, 2012, during a ceremony presided over by Pope Benedict XVI in Rome. #history #religious https://activite-paranormale.net/event/read/235/canonization-of-kateri-tekakwitha-by-benedict-xvi
