Illinois parish where Blessed Fulton Sheen was baptized to bear his name
Original: Blessed Sheen’s baptismal parish in Illinois to be first in world named for him
St. Mary's Parish in El Paso, Illinois, where Bishop Fulton Sheen was baptized, is set to become the first church in the world named for the now-beaten archbishop and pioneering televangelist. The renaming honors one of the most prominent American Catholic figures of the 20th century, and it is being reported by Catholic media as a notable milestone for the local parish and his legacy.
Why now: Catholic media are covering a symbolic milestone in the promotion of Fulton Sheen's cause, following his beatification approval
