About this sermon

The USCCB is considering whether to advance on the local level, the cause of beatification and canonization of Adele Brise. In 1859, Sister Adele witnessed the first and only approved Marian apparition in the United States in Champion, Wisconsin. Fr. Edward Looney wrote a book about Sr. Adele and our Lady of Champion. He also says he decided to enter the seminary and become a priest after a visit to our Lady of Champion when he was a sophomore in high school. From the Diocese of Green Bay, Wisconsin, Fr. Edward Looney joins to share his reaction when he heard the US bishops would consider whether to advance the beatification and canonization cause of Sr. Adele Brise. Fr. Edward tells us more about Sr. Adele and the Marian apparition in Wisconsin. He discusses the trip he took in high school in 2005 and how it changed his life. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
