Ogilvie celebrates its new namesake — St. Kateri


St. Kathryn Parish in Ogilvie hosted a diocesan celebration in honor of the canonization of St. Kateri Tekakwitha in Rome Oct. 21. The celebration began with a 10 a.m. Mass followed by a meal, children’s games and speeches.

A display in front of the altar at St. Kathryn’s featured a print given to St. Kathryn’s from its sister parish, St. Mary’s in Mora. The print was also given to Bishop John Kinney and Bishop Rafael Conde of Venezuela as gifts from St. Kathryn’s.

























A stained glass window of St. Kateri was made by Sally Young of Wahkon and installed Oct. 17 at St. Kathryn Church in Ogilvie.
