Saint Kateri Tekakwitha - Original Saint Statue

A unique figurine-statue of Saint Kateri Tekakwitha, the Lily of the Mohawks. Kateri stands in her imitation suede Mohawk dress and holds in her hands a cross made from twigs. She has an amazing story and is known for having preserved her virtue of chastity despite wicked surroundings. Saint Kateri was shunned by some of her tribe for her conversion to Catholicism and after moving to the Catholic mission was known for her mortification of the flesh. Her name, Kateri, is the Mohawk form of Catherine, which she took from St. Catherine of Siena. Saint Kateri Tekakwitha was canonized by Pope Benedict XVI on Oct. 21, 2012.

Original Saints are lifelike statues which inspire love and devotion at every age. The statues were originally designed and made by the Original Saints Co., but the limited selection of Saints was recently expanded by the Sisters MICM! For some statues the clothing is *hand-sewn by the Sisters MICM to custom fit, and hand-made accessories have also been included. These are truly "Original Saints" now! You won't find another one like it anywhere else!

Original Saint statues are a wonderful addition to any home, as a gift for a devotee, or even just as a reminder that the Saints are always there to intercede and pray for us to God.
