One Teen's Mission to Unite Iowa in Eucharistic Devotion – Sam Lange – 08/07/2026

High school senior Sam Lange of the Archdiocese of Dubuque joins the Catholic Morning Show to introduce the Iowa Eucharistic Pilgrimage, a statewide service project bringing four diocesan Eucharistic processions together at September's Christ Our Life Conference. Inspired by his own conversion experience and the witness of Blessed Carlo Acutis, Lange explains how puzzle pieces built by Deacon Jim Berger will physically unite the state's dioceses on the conference's main stage. It's an inspiring look at how one young Catholic's small first step became a movement.
