Looking for Bishop Fulton J. Sheen quote

[J.R]

I’m looking for help in getting the exact text of Bishop Sheen’s quote used at the beginning of EWTN’s rebroadcast’s of his show, “Life is Worth Living”. It goes something like this,

“Though we can’t sit in the same pew we can meet on our knees at the foot of the cross of our savior”

I would like to have the exact wording to put on a gift I’m giving to a Protestant friend of mine. Thank you and God Bless all here.

Have you tried going to EWTN’s website and searching there? Try that first and if they don’t have it try googling the quote.

I took the liberty of Googling it for us. Here is a list of 4 sites that came listed when I googled part of your quote and the word “Sheen” in the advanced search box at Google.

google.com/search?as_q=we+can+meet+on+our+knees+Sheen&num=10&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=we+can+meet+on+our+knees+&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=all&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&as_rights=&safe=images

From that, I got this quote directly from the site for The Catholic Truth Society (Diocese of Salford) Incorporated … – cts-manchester.org.uk/cgi-bin/miva?cts/merchant.mv+Screen=PROD&Store_Code=1&Product_Code=9780898708530&Category_Code=P123

"It is not a unity of religions we plead for, but a unity of religious people. We may not be able to meet in the same pew, but we can meet on our knees."

This quote is found in the book: Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen: A Man for all Media

Father Andrew Apostoli, CFR who (I think?) is on the board for the advancement of the cause for canonization for Archbishop Sheen, praises this book.
