Francis de Sales Brunner C.PP.S. (January 10, 1795 – December 29, 1859), in his native German Franz Sales Brunner, was a Roman Catholic missionary priest from Switzerland. Invited to the United States by Bishop John Baptist Purcell of Cincinnati, Brunner and his fellow Missionaries of the Precious Blood labored primarily among the German-speaking Catholics of Ohio. He founded several missions there. In 1850, Brunner built the Shrine of the Sorrowful Mother in Bellevue, Ohio, the oldest Marian shrine east of the Mississippi. It continues to be staffed by the Missionaries of the Precious Blood.
