The Illusion of Sanctity: St. Rose Philippine Duchesne and Conciliar Distortions
Catholic News Agency reports on the November 18 feast day of St. Rose Philippine Duchesne, detailing her missionary work in 19th-century America under Bishop Louis DuBourg. The article describes her founding of schools for Native American children, her establishment of the Society of the Sacred Heart in Missouri, and her 1988 canonization by John Paul II, highlighting her nickname “Quah-kah-ka-num-ad” (Woman Who Prays Always) among the Potawatomi tribe. The piece presents her as an educational pioneer while omitting doctrinal context about her spiritual formation and missionary methods.
