Archbishop John Foley was elevated to Cardinal earlier this morning in an announcement by Pope Benedict XVI. Cardinal Designate Foley is a native of Sharon Hill, which is where I live and graduated from and was a parishioner at Holy Spirit Church which is my current parish.
Cardinal Designate Foley still considers Holy Spirit his home parish, and our current pastor as Foley's pastor.
This is exciting news for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, our hometown, and our parish, as one of our receives a red hat.
He will receive his red hat in a consistory to be held at the Vatican 24 November 2007
