Canadian Bishops launch webpage for Kateri canonisation
The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops on Wednesday announced that they have
added a special webpage on the CCCB website for events in Rome and in North America
surrounding the canonization of Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha.
Blessed Kateri
will become the first Native American to be officially honoured as a saint when she
is canonised by Pope Benedict in Rome on October 21, 2012.
The CCCB has established
a special Secretariat to gather information on all the activities surrounding the
canonisation, and will make this available for pilgrims in Rome, and others who wish
to follow the events from home.
The new webpage can be found on the Bishops’
Conference site: www.cccb.ca
