    Does anyone know anything about this prayer card? I did a little research an came up with the following: I learn that she was the First Native American Saint. Born: 1656-Died-1680. Her Baptized name was Catherine , and that she was informally known as Lily of the Mohawks. The card has a gold-tone border with her name on front. (in blue caps). Bottom right initials: MMN rscj 1927. On back left side: April 1st, 1927. copyright (l0go): Le Messager Canadien Montreal. On right: Auxiliary Seal. Lithographed in Canada. Any help would be appreciated.

      Please I need your Help! I am just so baffled with this prayer card. I found it in my grandmother's old bible and I know she was born in Canada. Does anyone know if this is a original prayer card?

      They still make this prayer card, you can find it by putting in a search for the name Kateri. This is an older version of the prayer card, so it would be more valuable than one of today, as long as it is in perfect condition.

      Thank you Thynnie1942. Yes I know they do still make them However, I think I may have the original 1927 one. I have been doing some research an found out that the original one was made in 1927. I am not looking for value. I am just looking for someone that may know about the one I have. Thanks Again. Kathy
