Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Missionary of Mercy: The Story of Saint Katharine Drexel In an era when America's wealthiest families built empires of gold and glamour, one young heiress chose a different path-one that would challenge a nation's conscience and change countless lives. Born in 1858 into Philadelphia's elite Drexel banking dynasty, Katharine Drexel grew up surrounded by luxury, yet her heart was shaped by a deeper inheritance: a profound Catholic faith and a burning awareness of injustice. Traveling the American West and South, she witnessed the crushing poverty and discrimination faced by Native Americans and African Americans-peoples often forgotten by both society and the Church. Then came the moment that altered everything. In a private audience with Pope Leo XIII, Katharine pleaded for missionaries to serve these neglected souls. The Pope's startling response-"Why not, my child, yourself become a missionary?"-ignited a call she could no longer ignore. Renouncing a fortune worth millions, Katharine founded the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, a new religious congregation devoted exclusively to educating and evangelizing Native Americans and African Americans. Against fierce opposition-social scorn, racial hostility, even threats from the Ku Klux Klan-she built schools on remote reservations and in segregated towns, culminating in the founding of Xavier University, the nation's only Catholic historically Black university. Missionary of Mercy is the inspiring true story of a woman who traded privilege for poverty, comfort for hardship, and indifference for radical love. From dusty plains to Jim Crow courtrooms, from Vatican halls to frontier chapels, Saint Katharine Drexel's life stands as a testament to the power of one courageous "yes" to God. A timeless portrait of faith in action, this biography will move and challenge readers to ask: What might we surrender for the sake of mercy? This item is printed on demand.
