Not the least amongst the Saints
Kateri Tekakwitha was born in today’s New York state in 1656 to a Mohawk father and a Christian Algonquin mother who gave to her a sense of the living God. She was baptized at twenty years of age and, to escape persecution, she took refuge in Saint Francis Xavier Mission near Montreal. There she worked, faithful to the traditions of her people, although renouncing their religious convictions until her death at the age of twenty-four. Leading a simple life, Kateri remained faithful to her love for Jesus, to prayer and to daily Mass. Her greatest wish was to know and to do what pleased God. She lived a life radiant with faith and purity.
Kateri impresses us by the action of grace in her life in spite of the absence of external help and by the courage of her vocation, so unusual in her culture. In her, faith and culture enrich each other! May her example help us to live where we are, loving Jesus without denying who we are. Saint Kateri, Protectress of Canada and the first native American saint, we entrust to you the renewal of the faith in the first nations and in all of North America! May God bless the first nations!

La Fleur de Lys too: Saint Michel Archange
Seigneur, daigne te souvenir que dans les circonstances douloureuses de notre histoire, tu as fait de l'Archange saint Michel l'instrument de ta miséricorde à notre égard. Nous ne saurions l'oublier ; c'est pourquoi nous te conjurons de conserver à notre patrie la protection dont tu l'as jadis entourée par le ministère de cet Archange vainqueur.
Et toi, ô saint Michel, Prince des Milices célestes, viens à nous ; nous t'appelons.
Tu es l'Ange gardien de l'Eglise et de la France ; c'est toi qui as inspiré et soutenu Jeanne d'Arc dans sa mission libératrice. Viens encore à notre secours et sauve-nous ! Nous mettons nos personnes, nos familles, nos paroisses, la France entière, sous ta protection toute spéciale. Nous en avons la ferme espérance, tu ne laisseras pas mourir le peuple qui t'a é...té confié.
Que Dieu suscite parmi nous des saints ! Par eux, ô saint Archange, fais triompher l'Eglise dans la lutte qu'elle soutient contre l'enfer déchaîné et, par la Vertu du Saint-Esprit, établis le règne du Christ sur la France et dans le monde, afin que la paix du ciel y demeure à jamais.
Ainsi soit-il.
