Lily of the Mohawks

Kateri Tekakwitha –
the follower of Dekanawida.
Woman of supernatural events,
even during her earthly life.
 
Strange are your ways, oh Lord.
Many from your house are getting lost
and many strangers become
your adapted children.
 
She offered herself to the heart of Jesus
as atonement for the unbelief
of her people and that Lord God
be received by Indigenous of America.
