The late Archbishop Fulton Sheen, a charismatic figure of U.S. Roman Catholicism in the 20th century and a pioneer in using media for religious purposes, is one step closer to sainthood.

No date for the ceremony was given.  Sheen, who was born in Illinois in 1895 and died in New York in 1979, was sometimes called the first “televangelist.”
