The Museum

The Our Lady of Life Museum is a place of prayer, gathering, and encounter, born from James’ lifelong devotion to Our Lady. Having dedicated his home and estate to her mission, James has opened his home for others to experience the story and graces of Our Lady of Life, hear the remarkable events that have shaped his journey, and encounter the sacred Catholic art he has collected throughout his life.

A Home Dedicated to Our Lady

The Our Lady of Life Museum is unlike any traditional museum. It is the home of James Kern, who has dedicated his life, his home, and his estate to the mission of Our Lady of Life. What began as a personal devotion has transformed his home into a place of prayer, beauty, and encounter, filled with sacred art and Catholic treasures collected throughout his lifetime. Today, James opens his doors to welcome individuals, families, prayer groups, and the community to gather in prayer, hear the remarkable stories and graces that have shaped this mission, and learn more about the devotion to Our Lady of Life. Through these gatherings, we hope this home becomes a place where hearts are drawn closer to Our Lady, inspired by her Yes to God, and sent forth to carry her message of life into their own homes and communities.
