Summary
Archbishop Fulton Sheen, the iconic 20th-century TV priest, is set to be beatified on September 24th in St. Louis, marking a major step toward sainthood after the Church officially recognized a miracle: the resuscitation of a baby born without a pulse in 2010, whose mother prayed for Sheen’s intercession. The long-awaited ceremony follows delays in Church investigations and Pope Leo XIV’s February approval. James Engstrom, now a healthy teen, will carry a relic of Sheen at the event. His hometown of Peoria, Illinois, already reveres him as a spiritual guide, with his tomb drawing pilgrims who credit his prayers for life-changing miracles. At least five other potential miracles are under review, and the Church is expanding the Sheen Museum to meet global demand. Known for his beloved show “Life is Worth Living,” Sheen’s beatification celebrates holiness in everyday life and continues to ignite faith across the world.
