The Parish of St. Kateri Tekakwitha, Lily of the Mohawks was established in 2012 on the day of Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha’s Canonization as a Saint of the Catholic Church. The parish results from combining the four previous parishes of Gallatin County. The new parish church was dedicated in 2015. Please join us for Holy Mass, and in our mission to make disciples, teach the truth of Jesus Christ, and serve our neighbors in His name!

Support our Parish
Like so many institutions, we face financial uncertainty. About 95% of our income comes from Mass collections, which involves difficulties right now. If you can’t attend but can mail contributions, you are keeping the parish alive. St. Kateri Parish P.O. Box 190 Ridgway, IL 62979
CEMETERY UPKEEP DEPENDS ON DONATIONS: Donations provide upkeep of our cemeteries. Part of the upkeep for the cemeteries is mowing, trim work, tree limb removal and disposal, and maintaining the roads. Please consider making donations to help with the ongoing upkeep of our cemeteries. When submitting a donation to the cemetery please specify which cemetery you’re donating to. Please write a separate check for the cemetery donations. Our cemeteries: St. Patrick Cemetery, Pond Settlement, St. Mary’s Cemetery, Shawneetown, St. Joseph Equality Cemetery and St. Joseph Ridgway Cemetery.
