National Shrine & Historic Site of St. Kateri Tekakwitha

In this week’s spiritual pilgrimage, come along with Jason Nunez on a journey to the National Shrine & Historic Site of St. Kateri Tekakwitha, in Eastern New York state! It is described as a sacred place of peace and healing; a site of history and holiness. St. Kateri, a Native American, is still quite a ‘new’ saint relatively speaking. Her father was a Mohawk Chief and whose mother was a Christian Algonquin woman. To help guide us, is Melissa Miscevic Bramble, Director of Operations for the National Shrine & Historic Site.

During our journey, you will hear about:

  • Meet St. Kateri, Algonquin-Mohawk Catholic saint.
  • Hear about where she and her tribe lived.
  • Learn what is available for pilgrims to see & experience at her national shrine in Eastern New York state
