Fulton Sheen's beatification called a model of evangelization
Original: Fulton Sheen’s beatification ceremony was a model of evangelization for the whole church
Archbishop Fulton Sheen, the famed American televangelist and author, was beatified, and commentators describe the ceremony itself as a model of evangelization for the whole church. America Magazine argues that the way the rite was celebrated showed how the church can communicate the faith in Sheen's own spirit, inviting Catholics to imitate his example of media-savvy, engaging proclamation.
Why now: The beatification of a widely beloved 20th-century Catholic communicator has prompted discussion about how his style of evangelization remains relevant for the church today.
