DO YOU WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT VIRGIN MARY?

Visit the 16 Apparition shrines at our church. Star of the Sea is open Monday-Sunday 6am- 7pm.
RESOURCES
Her Face: Images of the Virgin Mary in Art portrays the life of the mother of Christ with nearly 100 full-page, color reproductions of the Virgin’s face as depicted by the world’s greatest artists from the twelfth century to the present. These compelling images are accompanied by selections from early to modern sacred and secular texts. Viewed together in this unique pictorial narrative, the life-sized portraits of Mary illuminate her dual nature as virgin and mother, mortal woman and immortal Queen of Heaven with a rare vitality, immediacy, and intensity that other collections lack.

The story about the Walk to Mary…
The Walk to Mary has become a pilgrimage like no other in the world. Thousands of people join this walk yearly in the state of Wisconsin. They start with St. Joseph (at the National Shrine of St. Joseph) and walk to Mary (at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion, Wisconsin) to get to Jesus. This annual pilgrimage has impacted lives and filled hearts with many blessings from the Holy Family.
America’s only Church-approved Marian apparition site, where in 1859, the Blessed Mother appeared to Adele Brise on the site of our Lady of Champion, Wisconsin. https://championshrine.org
