St. Kateri gets +50 holiness points for being a canonized saint.  Since I technically have more than enough blood to qualify as native, big suprise she'd be one of my favs.  Oh, she has a cool shine too.

While my wife is not a cannonized saint, I’ll give her 60 holines points for putting up with me 🙂

Both of my Mothers In Heaven...one of them doesn't even get a how to do in Christianity.🙁

Whelp, pretty sure a few of the distant relatives on my fathers side of the family are hoping that white heaven is seperate from the other heavens so  there's that.

Always think of the boodocks episode where Uncle Ruckus got to visit Regan in white heaven....

a) My mom--she deserves to be canonized for putting up with me.

b) The woman with an issue of blood, who was healed by touching the hem of Jesus' robe. Such great faith.

Also, being from Indiana, I would have to say I like Mother Théodore Guerin, who did a lot of work in the field of education and a lot of service in the early history of the state.

My beautiful mother, who I put up there as a true saint. And in the LDS church, since I don't know many Christian women outside of the church would be, Chieko N. Okazaki!

Just googled Chieko N. Okazaki, wow....

Moms not full Japanese but wow, she could have easily been one of her cousins.  I like this person, she's now added to the list.
