It is said that he had been preaching a lot in the church of Hanswijk. By the way his father was also one of the benefactors. By special request of the priest Van Campenhoudt, Victor Scheppers used to put up the believers to contribute a small gift for the finishing of the front in 1853; later on, on May the 29th of the year 1854, he thanked all the church-goers therefore.

 

He also held sermons occasionally in other neighbouring churches or he blessed Ways of the Cross such as in Vilvoorde, Bonheiden, Hofstade, Zemst and Muizen.

 

With the sanctuary of the Lady of Hanswijk he although stayed closely related. At the occasion of the 875 year existence of the place of pilgrimage in 1863, he there preached twice and at the closing of the festivities on August the 22th in 1863, he sang mass as well as the benediction.
