Additionally, during the smallpox outbreak both her parents died which left her orphaned. God did not cause this evil and suffering towards her. The reason why this happened to her is because bad things happen, and humans are mortal. There is evil in the world because there is good in the world to compare it to. ]]> 2023-02-22 18:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/26ktran5/sdl3umkpulua39tf/wish/2491540888 Core belief 2: God is Relational and God is Experiential 26ktran5 https://padlet.com/26ktran5/sdl3umkpulua39tf/wish/2491555373 After converting to Catholicism at the age of 19, she took a vow of chastity and devoted her whole life to God. To avoid punishment from her tribe, she traveled to a Christian native community to continue her faith. Not only did she pray, she fasted, and even prayed for the conversion of her fellow Mohawks. When she would eat, she made the food taste bland, and sometimes she hurt herself. She showed the belief that God is Relational by praying to God to increase her faith. Her revelation happens through the smallpox outbreak and experiencing his love through nature and prayer.]]> 2023-02-22 18:18:00 UTC https://padlet.com/26ktran5/sdl3umkpulua39tf/wish/2491555373 3 Facts that contributed to her becoming a saint 26ktran5 https://padlet.com/26ktran5/sdl3umkpulua39tf/wish/2491559883 - Her whole family died during the smallpox outbreak, her uncle raised her
