In the news recently is the beatification of Archbishop Fulton Sheen.
Sorry, is this beatification or is this canonization?
Um, I should know this.
It's, I think it's, okay, let's see.
Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz and this is Ascension Presents.
Is Archbishop Fulton Sheen going to be canonized or beatified?
And when is that?
You know, I did the interview with the Monsignor who's in charge of the process of his canonization, really the cause for his canonization.
It was fascinating to hear so many things about Archbishop Sheen and some of these things that I owe a lot to him.
There's four people that I wish I could meet in person and just thank them.
He is one of the four.
It came up in the interview with the Monsignor
But for someone's cause to be advanced, the process of canonization, they can't just be a decent person.
They can't just be a good person.
They can't just even be a really good person.
What you have to have evidence for is heroic virtue.
So I'm disqualified in that sense of like we're all, many of us may be disqualified.
If there's heroic virtue, it is buried deeply, deeply.
But Archbishop Poulton Sheen, there's evidence of heroic, not just ordinary, but heroic virtue in his life.
And I go back, there was a book he wrote.
