The remains of Archbishop Fulton Sheen are to be moved from St Patrick’s Cathedral in New York to the Illinois city of Peoria after a two-year dispute between the two dioceses.

A New York judge ruled in favour of a lawsuit launched by the Diocese of Peoria to bring the remains back to where Archbishop Sheen first served as an altar boy and then was ordained a priest.

The dispute led to the suspension of Archbishop Sheen’s Cause two years ago.

Two years earlier the Vatican had declared the archbishop – an early televangelist who presented the television programme “Life Is Worth Living” in the 1950s – to have lived a life of “heroic virtue”, meaning he is described as Venerable.

A possible miracle is being investigated that would pave the way for his beatification.

When Zack Clements of Brownwood, TX, was 17, he collapsed while running during gym class and went into cardiac arrest.

In the blink of an eye, the teenager went from being an active, healthy, and normal athlete at Victory Life Academy to laying lifelessly on the ground.

For 20 minutes, Zack had no pulse and was “legally” dead. But then something happened that many people still cannot medically or scientifically explain.

Zack’s pulse suddenly returned to normal and he was revived. Three days later, he awoke at Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth, TX, with no lasting effects from his terrifying ordeal.

As if that wasn’t unbelievable enough, it’s what the teenager said when he woke up three days later at the hospital that made his story to go viral.

His parents, Billy and Theresa, were so surprised by their son’s admission that they videotaped him recounting what he saw during those 20 minutes he went without a pulse.
