One of less than 24 priests in the United States who are trained and authorized by the Catholic Church to perform exorcisms will speak on campus Monday, October 17 in the Davis Center's Grand Maple Ballroom at 8 p.m. 

Father Vincent Lampert was appointed as the official exorcist for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis in 2005 and received formal training under the head exorcist in Rome in 2006. He will speak on the Catholic Church's understanding of exorcism, demonic activity and the like. 

The event, "The Real Exorcist," is sponsored by the UVM Catholic Center and the Catholic Student Association. It's open to the public, and a Q&A session will follow the formal portion of Lampert's presentation.
