St Katharine Drexel: Pioneer Woman Changed the Lives of Native Americans


 Today the reading is so good in the book In Caelo et in Terra that I'm going to just read the whole thing to you in my Facebook live. So if you haven't already, please visit my profile on FB and do a search for her name, and then you'll get to hear the whole reading. It's about St Katharine Drexel, who inherited a large fortune from her parents. Her parents, like St Therese of Liseux's parents, taught her to do what God leads her to do, and to take care of the less fortunate. She did just that, and is a patroness of racial justice because of all of her work. You can read more about her here.

God, thanks for the wonderful example of this young woman. St Katharine Drexel, pray for us.
