St. Paul’s Catholic Church, <strong>Swinomish</strong><br />
Submitted by Bev Peters<br />
Funds are being raised to support 4 parishoners who<br />
have the opportunity to attend a monumental occasion<br />
for Catholics all over the world, but especially for<br />
Native American Catholics. The canonization of<br />
Kateri Tekakwitha, “Lily of the Mohawks,” has been<br />
approved by the Pope because of a miracle that happened<br />
here in the Northwest for a 6 year old Lummi<br />
Nation boy, with ties to St. Paul’s at <strong>Swinomish</strong>.<br />
Jimi Grossglass<br />
caught this<br />
Halibut. It<br />
took four<br />
men to pull<br />
it in the<br />
boat!<br />
Congrats!<br />
Kateri Tekakwitha is the first Native American woman<br />
to be venerated in the<br />
roman Catholic<br />
Church. Tekakwitha<br />
was beatified by<br />
the Blessed Pope<br />
John Paul II in<br />
1980, and will<br />
be canonized<br />
on October<br />
21, <strong>2012</strong> at<br />
the St. Peter’s<br />
Basilica, the<br />
Vatican, Rome,<br />
Italy.
