There are people who make a place feel like home, and Francesco is certainly one of them. His kindness, generosity, and cheerful spirit have been a blessing to our staff, volunteers, and the many pilgrims who visit the Shrine.

We are so grateful to celebrate him and the wonderful friendship we share as part of the Shrine family. Moments like these remind us that the greatest gifts are the people God places in our lives.

Looks like someone was looking for a souvenir... but took a wrong turn! 🦃🎁😂

This curious turkey stopped by the Shrine today and seemed determined to visit our Gift Shop... except he kept trying the wrong door! (We promise the sign with the arrow was pointing him in the right direction. 😉)

In reality, our feathered friend was probably just having a spirited conversation with his own reflection in the glass—but it certainly gave us all a good laugh!

One of the many joys of visiting the Shrine is never knowing what wonderful surprises God's creation has in store. ❤️

Have you ever had a funny wildlife encounter at the Shrine? We'd love to hear about it in the comments!
