Diocese of Peoria Bishop Louis Tylka invites all to make a pilgrimage to St. Louis Sept. 24 to celebrate the beatification of Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen. The archbishop is a native of Peoria and was a pioneer in using the new media to evangelize and share the Gospel message. Bishop Tylka talks about the archbishop and invites the faithful to plan a pilgrimage to the beatification and include a stop in Peoria. For more information on Archbishop Sheen, the beatification and pilgrimage, go to www.celebratesheen.com. The diocese is creating The Sheen Experience museum and recently started renovating his former high school for the project. In the meantime, there is a museum available at the Diocese of Peoria pastoral center and visit Archbishop Sheen's burial site at the Cathedral. Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen, pray for us!
