We will spend time in prayer with St. Kateri Tekakwitha (1656-1680) and learn of her genuine piety as a role model for all women of faith today. 

This contemplative Mohawk mystic can assist us to navigate through life with HOPE. Although her story includes illness, family tension, and alienation, her love for Jesus is the source of her resilience and fortitude. How do we encounter Jesus and surrender to grace?

Sr. Judy has served the Church as a Marianite of Holy Cross for more than 6o years.  Known for her story telling, she shares the wisdom she has gleaned from ministry on the bayou, the inner city,  and the Alaska bush. In her own on-going conversion of heart, Sr. Judy reminds us that Baptism calls us to holiness and to proclaim and witness to the Good News of Jesus Christ.
