Sheen can proceed to beatification, according to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.celebratesheen.com\/news\/sheen-beatification\">announcement<\/a> from the diocese.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe next step in the process is the celebration of the beatification, in which Fulton Sheen would be declared Blessed,\u201d Tylka said. \u201cArchbishop Fulton Sheen was one of the greatest voices of evangelization in the Church and the world in the 20th century. I have long admired his lifelong commitment to serve the Church as a priest, rooted in his deep devotion to the Blessed Mother and the Eucharist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs he journeyed through the different stages of his life, his ability to share the Gospel and truly relate to people drew countless souls into an encounter with Jesus \u2014 one that transformed not only his life, but more importantly, the lives of those he touched.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn his later years, particularly through his work for the Missions, Archbishop Sheen helped us recognize that the Church is meant for all people. He reminded us that as members of the Church, we are called to serve everyone, especially those most in need and those longing to hear and experience the Gospel, wherever they may be in the world,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Tylka thanked the Holy See, his brother bishops, clergy, and laypeople for the collaboration and prayers that led to Sheen\u2019s beatification, which will be \u201ca special blessing for the Church in the United States, where he was a powerful evangelist on radio, television, and in personal appearances.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Diocese of Peoria is working with the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints at the Vatican to determine the <a href=\"http:\/\/celebratesheen.com.\/\">details<\/a> for the upcoming beatification.<\/p>\n<h2>Fulton Sheen<\/h2>\n<p>Peter John Sheen was born in El Paso, Illinois, on May 8, 1895, and was called \u201cFulton\u201d in honor of his mother\u2019s maiden name. Sheen was ordained a priest of the Peoria Diocese on Sept. 20, 1919. On June 11, 1951, he was consecrated as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of New York and remained in the position until 1966. He was then named the bishop of Rochester, New York, until his retirement in 1969 at the age of 74.<\/p>\n<p>Tylka has previously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/247598\/peoria-diocese-continues-promoting-sheens-beatification-cause\">called Sheen<\/a> a \u201ctrailblazer\u201d due to his Emmy-winning television show \u201cLife Is Worth Living.\u201d The show aired on television from 1952 until 1957, discussing morality and Catholicism.<\/p>\n<p>Sheen \u201creached millions of people because of [the show],\u201d Tylka said. \u201cHe was so far ahead of his time in that reality that we take for granted today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sheen died due to heart disease on Dec. 9, 1979, the feast of St. Juan Diego.<\/p>\n<h2>Road to beatification<\/h2>\n<p>Although Sheen is to be beatified, the process leading to the milestone has been marked by many challenges and delays.<\/p>\n<p>The televangelist\u2019s cause for canonization was first opened in 2002 under the leadership of the Diocese of Peoria, and from then on he was referred to as a servant of God. Pope Benedict XVI declared him venerable in June 2012.<\/p>\n<p>On March 6, 2014, the board of medical experts who advise the then-Congregation for the Causes of Saints unanimously approved a reported miracle attributed to his intercession. Parents of a stillborn baby, James Fulton, prayed through the intercession of Sheen and their son <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/23387\/archbishop-fulton-sheen-credited-with-babys-stunning-recovery\">miraculously recovered<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On June 17, 2014, the seven-member theological commission that advises the congregation unanimously agreed with the medical team\u2019s finding.<\/p>\n<p>In September 2014, Sheen\u2019s cause was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/30416\/suspension-of-fulton-sheens-cause-expected-to-be-temporary\">suspended<\/a> due to an ownership dispute of his remains. The suspension was announced \u201cwith sadness\u201d in a statement by then-bishop of Peoria Daniel R. Jenky, president of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.celebratesheen.com\/cause\">the Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Explaining how the Holy See \u201cexpected that the remains of Venerable Sheen would be moved to Peoria where official inspection would be made and first-class relics be taken,\u201d the statement said that the Archdiocese of New York had denied Jenky\u2019s request to move the body to Peoria.<\/p>\n<p>Finally in March 2019, a New York <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/40731\/appeals-court-says-fulton-sheens-body-should-go-to-peoria\">appeals court unanimously ruled <\/a>that the earthly remains of Sheen could be moved to St. Mary\u2019s Cathedral in Peoria. The following June, his body was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/41665\/fulton-sheens-remains-arrive-in-peoria;-sainthood-cause-resumes\">transferred <\/a>to St. Mary\u2019s Cathedral after three years of litigation, helping to clear the way for the archbishop\u2019s sainthood cause to go forward.<\/p>\n<p>Pope Francis approved of the miracle attributed to the intercession of Sheen on July 5, 2019. Sheen was set to be beatified on Dec. 21, 2019, but the beatification experienced a delay.<\/p>\n<p>Bishop Salvatore Matano of Rochester <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/247598\/peoria-diocese-continues-promoting-sheens-beatification-cause\">reportedly requested<\/a> the delay of Sheen\u2019s beatification due to concerns that he could be named in the final report of an ongoing investigation into clergy sex abuse in New York.<\/p>\n<p>The situation was later cleared up and it was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/42986\/updated-sheen-beatification-postponement-not-related-to-2007-cover-up-allegation-sources-say\">reported<\/a> the delay was not related to the 2007 allegation that Sheen witnessed and covered up an act of clerical sexual abuse. The Diocese of Peoria issued an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/42985\/fulton-sheen-beatification-postponed\">announcement<\/a> that said \u201cit has been demonstrated definitively that [Sheen] was an exemplary model of Christian conduct and a model of leadership in the Church. At no time has his life of virtue ever been called into question.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The diocese said the beatification would be delayed so that more time can be given to examine Sheen\u2019s life. It further <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/43008\/diocese-of-rochester-confirms-it-requested-fulton-sheen-beatification-delay#:~:text=On%20Dec.,for%20the%20salvation%20of%20souls.%22\">called<\/a> the delay \u201cunfortunate,\u201d because \u201cthere continue to be many miracles reported through Sheen\u2019s intercession.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite the delays, proponents of the beatification continued to work to advance the cause. In May 2025 Tylka reiterated his intention to advocate for the beatification process with Pope Leo XIV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Holy See has officially informed Bishop Louis Tylka of the Diocese of Peoria, Illinois, that the cause for the Venerable Servant of God Archbishop Fulton J.
