Kateri Tekakwitha Shrine & Mohawk Village, New York - Travels With Phil

Kateri Tekakwitha is the first American Indian to have been named a saint by the Catholic Church. She was a Mohawk and lived in the 1600s in central New York near the modern town of Fonda. She was only the 10th person born in the USA to become a saint. Using two of my video clips, and several dozen photos, I show you her shrine and the ancient site of the Mohawk village of Caughnawaga Castle where she lived. - Travels with Phil copyrighted by Phil Konstantin - ------ You can see all my photos of the area through this link: http://travelswithphil.com/verybigpho... ------ You can subscribe to my YouTube Channel at this link ----- https://www.youtube.com/user/cherokee... ----- Music Credit: From Freesound.org - 133484__ephemeral-rift__native-american-flute-improv-1-in-f-minor - CC BY-NC 3.0 ----- Photo Credit (other than my own): Kateri_Tekakwitha_devotional_medal-GrammarFascist-Wikipedia-byGrammarFascist-CC 4.0 = = = Saint Kateri Tekakwitha by father Claude Chauchetière around 1696-Wikipedia-PD = = = Statue of Kateri Tekakwitha by Joseph-Émile Brunet at the Basilica of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, near Quebec City-Wikipedia-byLovesMacs-cc 3.0 = = = Statue_Kateri_Tekakwitha-Wikipedia-byDieterkaupp-CC 4.0 = = = 2018-09-24 14_12_19-St. Kateri Tekakwitha - Saints & Angels - Catholic Online
