Embraces the Wetlands' in her new home, Alexandria, Louisiana;

Saint Kateri Prayer
By: Harold Caldwell
O Saint Kateri, Lily of the Mohawks,
Your love for Jesus, so strong,
so steadfast, grant that
we may become like you.
Your short and painful life showed us
your strength and humility.
Grant that we may become forever
humble like you.
Like the bright and shining stars at night,
we pray that your light may forever shine
down upon us, giving light,
hope, peacefulness and serenity
in our darkest moments.
Fill our hearts, Saint Kateri Tekakwitha
with your same love for Jesus
and grant us your strength and courage
to become one like you in Heaven.
Amen.

Basic Directions in Native Ministry June 1- 8, 2015
Sioux Spiritual Center, Howes, South Dakota
A seven-day institute for personnel who are beginning or are wanting to learn more about Native American ministry will be held at the Sioux Spiritual Center in Howes, South Dakota. The institute is sponsored by the National Tekakwitha Conference. It will begin with supper on Monday, June 1, 2015, at 6:00 PM (Mountain Daylight Time) and end on Monday, June 8, at 11:00 AM, with departures to the Rapid City airport after lunch.
There will be 31 hours of class work associated with the workshop. Speakers will cover topics that include missiology, anthropology, liturgy, catechetics, collaborative ministry, Native culture and religion, and principles of recovery using AA. Native speakers involved in catechetics, parish administration, and youth ministry will discuss their work. Although the institute will take place in a Lakota setting, it will develop basic principles of inculturation that can be used in approaching any culture.
Space is limited. Enrollment will be closed after 22 people who apply have been accepted. The cost for the institute is $800.00. This includes room (double occupancy), meals, and materials. Double occupancy means that you can expect to have a roommate. Rooms are air-conditioned.
A $50.00 deposit is required with the application along with a letter of recommendation from the applicant’s pastor or supervisor. The letter must provide information on the applicant’s current or future ministry with Native people. The deposit is non-refundable after May 1.
Airport shuttle service will only be available at these times: pickup ONLY on Monday afternoon, June 1. Please schedule your flight to arrive at Rapid City Regional Airport between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM. The return to the airport is ONLY on Monday, June 8 (schedule your departing flight no earlier than 1:00 PM). The cost of the round-trip shuttle service – in addition to tuition – is $50.00, payable in advance or upon arrival at the Center.
