She is a reminder that in our own diocese we have a large population of Native Americans called by the grace of God to lives of holiness. The statue was commissioned to Sr. Margaret Beaudette, a Sister of Charity, who works out of DePaul Studio in Brink, New York. The six-foot figure of Blessed Kateri was cast in bronze and weighs approximately 500 pounds. It stands on a marble pedestal and is enshrined in one of the side chapels surrounded by voitive lights. -------------------------------- "Margaret Beaudette" "sculptor" https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Margaret+Beaudette%22+%22sculptor%22 --------------------------------- 2005Sullivan Potential Saints Have Ties to the Diocese Article by Dan Sullivan for the Catholic Herald, 2005 Diocese of Superior « a new statue of Tekakwitha was installed in the Cathedral of Christ the King.
