Mass to remember pioneering archbishop

Papal Nuncio Archbishop Giuseppe Lazzarotto and US ambassador in Ireland James Kenny will attend a Mass in Terenure College's Chapel on Sunday to remember the 25th Anniversary of the death of Archbishop Fulton J Sheen.

Archbishop Sheen was one of the first priests to use television for religious education and teaching in the US. He pioneered religion on television with weekly broadcasts of a half-hour program, "Life Is Worth Living, which attracted 25 million viewers in the US and won an Emmy award.
