Saint Katharine was an advocate for the poor and oppressed. This sister from Philadelphia devoted her life to uplifting the minds and spirits of the Native and African Americans. Katharine Drexel had a system of black Catholic schools in more than 13 states, 40 mission centers, and 23 rural schools. She established 50 missions for Indians in 16 states according to Franciscan Media. She died on March 3, 1955, at 96 years old. Drexel was beatified in 1988 after the Vatican confirmed her first miracle, restoring a boy's hearing. A second miracle was attributed to her in January 2000 after a young girl was cured of her deafness following prayers to Drexel and having her ears touched by some of Drexel's possessions.

Care Instructions
My handpainted icons are made from natural materials that constantly interact with their environment. These above materials are sensitive to extreme light, heat and humidity.
Handling the icons should also be done cautiously; oils from our hands can stain their shiny surface. Dust can softly be removed with a pure white cloth.
Following the above simple instructions will guarantee that your icon will age gracefully through time and will be enjoyed by the generations to come.
