I was able to attend Fr. Kapaun’s funeral in September. A beautiful ceremony.

“I was able to attend Fr. Kapaun’s funeral in September.”

You were fortunate. I watched in on EWTN and the power was real. The two homilies were amazing, the crowd was reverent and the stories about Fr. Kapaun still broadcast bravery. He had no fear in battle. What a knight!

Yes, and a strong argument can be made that he was a martyr.

I'm going to bump my own post....

Why, you say?

I think it's a very appropriate in this day and age....to understand, Hope, Love, and our Lord and Savior.
