Carla Powell, an Osage Indian and lifelong parishioner of Immaculate Conception Church in Pawhuska, Okla., talks with Bishop Edward J. Slattery of Tulsa, Okla., during a special luncheon at the church Aug. 10. The bishop and Powell, an Osage Indian, were on hand for the dedication of a new parish shrine dedicated to Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha. Following the dedication parishioners gathered for a traditional Osage meal. The church, founded in 1890 in Indian territory, has had a longtime connection to the Osage tribe.
