A Movement, Not a Conference
The Story We Are Telling
Long before his cause was opened, Sheen prophesied that America needs a saint — an American saint. On September 24, 2026, that prophecy is fulfilled. The night before, we will gather to receive what Sheen gave his life to teach us.
How are we going to live in these troubled times? There is really only one answer: We have to become saints.
Venerable Fulton J. Sheen · A Treasured Love Story · 1973
This is not a generic Catholic conference. It is a gathering of those who championed Sheen when his cause was buried, those who have suffered for the same convictions Sheen suffered for, those who are committed to rebuilding America and the Church the way Sheen did, and those becoming Sheen-like leaders — who pray like Sheen, think like Sheen, and love like Sheen.
Think like Sheen. Pray like Sheen.
Suffer like Sheen. Lead like Sheen.
I.
THINK
The Mind of Sheen.
Clarity in an age of confusion. The Gospel proclaimed without apology.
II.
PRAY
The Hour of Sheen.
The Holy Hour that made the man. The interior life that makes the saint.
III.
SUFFER
The Cross of Sheen.
What was hidden behind the cameras. What sanctity actually costs.
IV.
LEAD
The Voice of Sheen.
The Catholic in the public square. The patriot who loved his country enough to call it home to God.
