Discover the inspiring life of St. Katharine Drexel in this engaging Vision book for youth. Born in 1858 into a wealthy yet devout Catholic family in Philadelphia, Katharine inherited not just a fortune, but a heart full of compassion for the oppressed. After the loss of her parents, she dedicated her life and resources to supporting Native Americans and African Americans, following the call to "freely give" inspired by Our Lady and Pope Leo XIII.

As the founder of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament in 1891, Mother Katharine established schools and institutions across the United States, tirelessly uplifting those in need. Canonized by Pope John Paul II in 2001, her legacy of service and devotion continues to inspire. This beautifully written book offers a glimpse into the life of an American saint who truly lived out her faith.
