We welcome explorer and educator Nell Andrzejewski to preview EWTN’s new series Hidden Gems, which visits some of North America’s most meaningful Catholic shrines. What stories lie behind places like the North American Martyrs Shrine and the Shrine of Our Lady of La Leche, and why is making a pilgrimage still important for Catholics today? Father Finishes with Timely Thoughts.
