The 6th graders took a pilgrimage to Wichita on Wednesday, Oct. 16 to visit the tomb of Servant of God, Fr. Emil Kapaun and to visit the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Motherhouse in Colwich. The students prepared for this trip by learning about Fr. Kapaun and his heroic life in the POW camp during the Korean War. At the Motherhouse, the students ate a picnic lunch, played around on the property, and learned more about the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima . They also got to meet Trudy, the Sister's convent dog.
