and toJesus Crucified. At 4

in the snow
waiting for it to open.

She attended three Masses
daily and always managed two hours
in preparation for Holy
Communion and two hours in thanksgiving;
and she made frequent visits
to the Blessed Sacrament.
Her motto: 'Who
can teach me what is most agreeable to God
so that I may do it?'

"I am not my
own; I have given myself to Jesus. He must be my only
love.
The state of helpless
poverty that may befall me if I do not marry does not frighten me. All I need
is a little food and a few pieces of clothing. With the work of my hands I shall
always earn what is necessary and what is left over I'll give to my relatives
and to the poor. If I should become sick and unable to work, then I shall be
like the Lord on the cross. He will have mercy on me and help me, I am
sure."- St Kateri Tekakwitha
St Kateri
Tekakwitha, pray for us!
