Fr. Daniel Brandenburg, LC

Fr. Daniel Brandenburg grew up in rural northern Iowa and felt a call to the priesthood at a young age, entering the novitiate of the Legionaries of Christ in 1993 and was ordained a priest on December 22, 2007. 

He has served in various roles and lived in several cities worldwide, and he currently serves as chaplain for the Lumen Institute and the Regnum Christi Men’s section in Atlanta, GA. In 2023, he completed a doctorate in education through Creighton University’s Interdisciplinary Leadership Program.

In 2016, Fr. Daniel survived a heart attack and in 2018 was diagnosed with multiple myeloma cancer. The experience of suffering and brushes with death has colored his outlook on life. He strives to live each day as a gift from God.

Fr. Daniel is the author of seven published books: The New Fundamentalists (2007), Better with God? (2012), Until Christ be Formed in You (2017), Journey to Joy: Reflections on the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary (2019), Now and Forever (2021), The Way of St. Joseph (2021), and Lessons from the Workshop of Saint Joseph (2022).
