The same was true of most of the doctors interviewed by the Vatican as part of the investigation into possible miracles in Wichita, [Kansas]. They were not Catholic but told the investigator that there was no scientific explanation for what happened and that the hand of God obviously was at work.

I've definitely read articles about him before. From Kansas as well I think.

I was lucky enough to attend the high school named for Father Kapaun. A most excellent example for young people of faith to read about.

“They all said they have tried to become better people, to emulate the life that Kapaun led.” God bless him. Thanks for posting this.
