House of Mary Shrine

House of Mary Shrine is a Catholic Shrine located in Yankton, South Dakota.

This Shrine began its development when a young couple, Ed and Jean English, purchased land to build a home. A Priest told them to “save a portion for God.” They were also told “you will be surprised the people God will send to help.” And so it is, since 1971, the Shrine has grown and developed through work of volunteers and generous donations.

Larry and Irene Hames believe in miracles. Irene suffered a major health concern, and Larry and the family sought Mary’s intercession, especially through the Rosary. In thanksgiving for Irene’s recovery, they wanted to honor Mary. The entrance, with a series of 9 pillars, depicting Mary’s life and apparitions and a statue of Mary was their way of giving thanks to Jesus through Mary.
