Beatification Of Fulton Sheen – Read Cardinal Tagle’s Homily

“For Archbishop Sheen, caring for the poor was not ideological propaganda, but an imperative for the following of Christ, of the joining of the Church and the missions, and of the conversion inspired by the Holy Spirit.” – Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle 

On September 24, 2026, approximately 50,000 people—including many USCMA members—attended the Beatification of Blessed Fulton Sheen. Presiding over the ceremony, Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle delivered a stunning and profound homily on the nature of mission and blessedness.
