(d. 1852; feast day Nov. 18)

St. Rose Philippine
Taught the Potawatomi
Fueled by love and prayer
*
The natives called her:
“Woman who constantly prays”
(“Quah-kah-ka-num-ad”)
*
What St. Anne Seton
did in Eastern USA,
Rose did in Central

*

Setbacks without end

Did not keep the Lord’s grace

From blooming this Rose

*

Jesus’ Sacred Heart

His strength, compassion, ardor

Beat within her own
