Saint Kateri Tekakwitha is the first American
aboriginal to be recognized as a saint by the
Catholic Church. In 1980, she was beatified
by Pope John Paul II, 300 years after her
death, and canonized on October 21, 2012 by
Pope Benedict XVI. The community of
Mashteuiatsh has given itself the mission of
propagating devotion to Saint Kateri
throughout the Lac Saint-Jean region and
among visitors.
