Artist Patricia Brintle writes an icon of St. Kateri Tekakwitha for St. James Cathedral in Seattle. In May, the archdiocese asked her to create the icon of St. Kateri, which she completed over the summer and sent to Seattle in September. After being blessed on Oct. 19, 2025, the icon has been touring local Native American Catholic communities before being placed in its permanent home on a wall of the cathedral.
