Centennial moment: Our Sunday Visitor's 100th anniversary symposium and Mass

Excitement is mounting at Our Sunday Visitor for Friday's centennial symposium and Mass in Fort Wayne, Ind.

The day will include talks from the following people: Cardinal Francis George, archbishop of Chicago, speaking on Catholic apologetics; Helen M. Alvare, associate professor of law at George Mason University School of Law, speaking on religious freedom and women’s equality; and Scott Hahn,  professor of Theology and Scripture at Franciscan University of Steubenville, speaking on Scripture, the Eucharist and the New Evangelization. 

The symposium will be followed by a 5 p.m. Mass at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, with Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades of Fort Wayne-South Bend, chairman of Our Sunday Visitor's board of directors, leading a grand procession using OSV founder Archbishop John F. Noll's chalice and crosier.
