Venerable Archbishop Sheen and Easter: Hope for the Poor
Wrote Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen in MISSION magazine in March-April 1957, “Stores in America are having a hard time thinking up Easter presents ‘for people who have everything’: They wouldn’t have so much trouble finding something suitable for this Chinese mother and child. She needs everything: food, clothing shelter, love. Why not put her on your Easter list – she’s so easy to shop for.”
Even today, Archbishop Sheen’s words ring true as we remember our reason for hope and try to extend that hope to the poor half a world away.
