As the National Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton marked the 50th anniversary of the 1975 canonization of its namesake on Sept. 14, the Emmitsburg, Maryland, campus hosted what was dubbed "A Day of Joy" as part of a three-day celebration attracting over 3,000 visitors. Dramatic monologues brought saints-to-be to life, while their canonization causes could be discovered at more than 20 information tables in the "Saints On Their Way Village." What might Mother Seton, the first native-born American saint, make of all of it? "Well, Elizabeth Ann Seton liked to have fun," Rob Judge, the shrine's executive director, told OSV News, speaking of the socialite-turned-sister's early life. "No matter what your vocation, no matter the highways and byways of your life, chances are that St. Elizabeth Ann Seton walked the same road," Lori concluded.
