The Holy See has officially confirmed that the cause of Venerable Archbishop Fulton J

The Holy See has officially confirmed that the cause of Venerable Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen may now proceed to beatification. The next step will be the celebration at which he will be declared Blessed.

Born in Illinois in 1895 and ordained for the Diocese of Peoria, Sheen became a well-known Catholic voice during the twentieth century. As a priest and later a bishop, he embraced the growing influence of radio and television to share the Gospel with a wide audience, most notably through his programme Life Is Worth Living. At a time when faith-based broadcasting was still developing, he demonstrated how modern media could be used thoughtfully and effectively in the service of Christ.

Rooted in a deep devotion to the Eucharist and to Our Lady, his ministry drew countless people into a deeper encounter with Jesus.
