Catholic Author Rich May to visit Diocese

National Catholic speaker, Rich May, will visit the Diocese of Tulsa in the month of October to describe St. Kateri Tekakwitha's miraculous apparations and healings after her death in 1680. Learn about Lakota spirituality as a template for Catholicism. There is also evidence that Our Lady appeared to the Lakota Sioux Indians, most notably around 1785 as the "White Buffalo Calf Woman" - a belief held by Nicholas Black Elk and many Lakota Catholics today. 

Learn more about St. Kateri Tekakwitha, the Lily of the Mohawks and the cause for the beatification of Servant of God, Nicholas Black Elk, also known as Heȟáka Sápa.
