The 2014 General Assembly of the Emperor Karl League was held on the 18th October in Heilegenkreuz Abbey in Vienna, Austria. The President, the Executive President, the Committee and many Delegates attended. Many important issues were discussed such as the Official website of the League and the reported "Miracle" through Emperor Karl`s intercession in the U.S.A. along with other plans for the future.

This year`s Annual Pilgrimage was held in Sopron, Hungary. It was precisely in this city that in 1895, Mother Vincentia Fauland prophesied that the young Archduke Karl would one day become Emperor of Austria, suffer a lot and be a target of hell! She asked for a prayer group to be formed in order for its members to sustain Karl with their prayers and sacrifices. This group later came to be known as the Emperor Karl League of Prayers for Peace among Nations. The Holy Mass was celebrated by H.G. Mgr. Dr. Fernand Franck - Archbishop Emeritus of Luxembourg and President of the League. The Executive President was also present along with the General Assembly and many Delegates. 

A relic of Blessed Emperor Karl I of Austria was enshrined in the Church of Santa Maria dell`Anima in Rome. Mgr. Arnaldo Morandi - Delegate of the Emperor Karl League of Prayers for Italy was present along with Mgr. Dr. Franz Xaver Brandmayr - Rector of the Papal College and Spiritual Assistant of the League. We do hope that pilgrims visiting this Roman Church will have the occasion to pray to Blessed Karl I and ask for his canonization!

After the Mass, the congregation prayed for the Canonization of Karl in front of his tomb.
