Did You Know? There's an Approved Marian Apparition Site in the U.S.

When was the last time you went on pilgrimage? Why not make a plan to visit the only site of an approved Marian apparition site in the United States where she appeared to Adele Brise, a young woman living in the Wisconsin wilderness. What did Mary say? "What are you doing here in idleness. Teach the children." It's a message for our day when most young Catholics know more about Harry Potter and Hogwarts than they do about the faith. If you aren't "teaching the children" (your own, your grandkids, your nieces and nephews, your godchildren), you're missing the boat. You don't have to be in the classroom to teach the children. That little three-year-old grandson is a captive audience, Grandpa. Take him fishing and stop in the church on the way to visit Jesus who chose fishermen among his apostles. Hike with your kids and stop for "rosary rests" where you say a decade before moving on. Let's teach the children every day in every way that Jesus Christ is King!

Pour out the Breath of the Holy Spirit on us, Lord, this Pentecost that we may be worthy teachers of your precious little ones.
