95. What You Don’t Know About St. Kateri: Extreme Penance, Perpetual Virginity and Eucharistic Fervor

Upfront with the Archbishop

As we near her feast day (April 17), join Archbishop Smith for a discussion about St. Kateri Tekakwitha and lesser-known facts about her life, including her Catholic formation in a Mohawk women’s community, her relationship with radical forms of penance, her vow of perpetual virginity, her love of the Eucharist and how her story can give hope to those who are being persecuted or dismissed for their commitment to following Jesus.
