Father Daniel Kampschneider, ordained in 1979, was pastor of St. Vincent de Paul Parish in Omaha. He is now vicar for retired priests in the Archdiocese of Omaha. In 2023 he joined the ICTE for an 11-week sabbatical/study course in Rome on the Church teachings and scriptural understanding of Mary, concluding with a pilgrimage to the “Holy Family Trail” which commemorates the places they stopped or stayed during their exodus to Egypt. Now during a stopover in Rome on a pilgrimage for which he was spiritual director, Father Dan recounts his extraordinary sabbatical experience at the Institute for Continuing Theological Education.
