She was canonized by Pope Paul VI in 1975.<\/p>\n<p>The shrine includes St. Elizabeth Ann\u2019s original \u201cStone House\u201d and \u201cWhite House\u201d as well as the basilica.<em>\u00a0<\/em>With the addition of the museum and visitors center, pilgrims to the shrine now have the opportunity to immerse themselves in her life by walking in her footsteps where she lived and served, and through interactive displays and exhibits in the museum that are rich in American history and the history of the Catholic Church in America.<\/p>\n<p>What was formerly the provincial entrance near the basilica has been transformed into a modern and welcoming visitor center, seamlessly connecting visitors to the gift shop and museum galleries. Inside, the galleries paint an intimate portrait of Mother Seton through dozens of artifacts, visual storytelling displays, and digital interactive exhibits.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/255439\/seton-shrine-s-new-dollar-4m-museum-and-visitor-center-offers-interactive-encounter-with-first-american-born-saint\"><em>Read the whole article here.<\/em><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Catholic News Agency covers the grand opening.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":79,"featured_media":172340,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"mc4wp_mailchimp_campaign":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[3920],"tags":[4310],"class_list":["post-172339","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-newsroom","tag-museum"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
