Proposed St Elizabeth Ann Seton Hall at Our Lady of Walsingham Cathedral

+

There is currently an appeal underway at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Walsingham in Houston, Texas to build a new building for Catholic Education and Sacred Music. The building is to be named Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Hall.  Link here.

St Elizabeth Ann Seton was a convert to the Catholic Church from the Episcopal Church (part of the Anglican Communion of churches).  If memory serves, there is a major relic of St Elizabeth Ann Seton at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Walsingham. If my memory is indeed correct, her relic is in the High Altar of the Cathedral.  

To me it is a most wonderful thing to see a building dedicated to Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton at the Cathedral of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter.
