On Friday morning, August 26, at 6:45 a.m., I read an article about the miraculous closing of the Appleton, Wis., Planned Parenthood.
I say “miraculous” because “exactly to the day” one year prior, Bishop David L. Ricken of the Diocese of Green Bay offered the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass with the specific intention to close that Planned Parenthood, and then proceeded to the Planned Parenthood site with many other prayer warriors to offer special prayers for its closing.
That’s right . . . one year. To. The. Day. And, it happened on the memorial of the Queenship of Mary (August 22). WOW!!

MADISON — With construction almost completed at Holy Name Heights — formerly Holy Name Seminary and the Bishop O’Connor Catholic Pastoral Center in Madison — there are many new and exciting changes that have taken place throughout the building over the past two years.
One thing that remains the same though is the statue of Mary that resides in the south courtyard of the building.
MONONA — The Federation of North American Explorers (FNE) is part of a worldwide movement of the Catholic Church, approved by the Holy See. The group meets on the first, third, and fifth Mondays of the month at Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish in Monona during the school year.
Meetings include games, Scripture study, and occasional projects with the goal of forming ordinary saints. The group camps overnight once during autumn, winter, and spring. Monthly Saturday outings begin with Mass and include activities as well as occasional service to the host parish, Immaculate Heart of Mary, as well as in the community.
MADISON — Len Hornung, a member of St. Thomas Aquinas Parish in Madison, attended a recent national Marian Conference at Notre Dame.
While he was there, an exhibit promoted a film called Apparition Hill. This film chronicles the journey of seven strangers who travel to the village of Medjugorje.
After the conference, Len and his wife, Paula, attended a showing of the film in Menomonie, Wis. “The film was very moving. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house,” Len said.
