Two new historical features have been added to www.motherofmercycatholichymns.com - What's New section, exploring two important parts of the Catholic heritage of St. Mary’s Parish in Akron, Ohio.

Honoring the Legacy of the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary at St. Mary’s School remembers six IHM Sisters whose years of teaching, ministry, and service helped shape generations of St. Mary’s children and families.

A Prophet in Our Midst: Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen’s Enduring Legacy in Akron and St. Mary’s Parish traces Archbishop Sheen’s remarkable connection with Akron—from his early deanery appearances in the 1940s to his extraordinary twelve-talk visit to St. Mary’s Parish and the Akron Civic Theater in 1973.

Both stories are part of an ongoing effort to preserve the people, memories, and Catholic heritage that helped make St. Mary’s what it is today.
