Potawatomi Trail of Death and Father Benjamin Petit

American Catholic History

In 1836, the Potawatomi native Americans, many of whom were Catholic, were forced off their land in Indiana and force-marched to Kansas. Tom and Noëlle Crowe tell us the tragic story that resulted in much suffering, but also included much grace, including from their pastor, Fr. Benjamin Petit. The post Potawatomi Trail of Death and Father Benjamin Petit appeared first on StarQuest Media.
