All Saints' Day!

Although we do not celebrate Halloween, we had a grand time at the All Saints' Day Party. We escorted Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha:
Kateri's father was a Mohawk Warrior. Her mother died when she was four. She converted to Christianity in her teens. Although she was persecuted by the other Indians, she remained strong in her faith. She moved to a Christian Indian colony in Canada until she died of poor health at the young age of twenty-four.
