Aleteia recently attended the grand opening of the Seton Shrine's new $4 million museum. It tells the story of America's first native-born saint through precious relics and interactive displays. Becca Cobell, the shrine's Associate Program Director, gave Aleteia readers a personal tour of the museum's three galleries. She showed us just a few of the many treasures awaiting visitors to this holy and inspiring destination.
