New Congregation - Native American Ministry

[Luigi]

There's a woman in Arizona who's founding a congregation that will evangelize Native Americans. 

 

The order is the Little Sisters of the Cross. The founder is Sister Clissene Lewis. 

 

Here's a link to the story I read.  http://www.benedictinesisters.org/articledetail.php?id=275&start=0&status=1&m_year=2014  There may be more information out there from other sources.

The first thing I thought of was, 'I hope they take St. Kateri as their patron saint.'  :)

:woot: YAY!  Native Americans are one of the most under served populations in the US, they are often poorer than illegal immigrants, have worse high school graduations than inner-city blacks and are much more likely to be victimized in any number of ways.
