Vatican to make John Paul II a saint
|
|
Pope Francis cleared the way for his canonisation, expected later this year, after a second miracle was attributed to the late pontiff's intervention. The Polish-born pope led the Roman Catholic Church from 1978 until his death in 2005. Pope Francis also approved the sainthood of Pope John XXIII (1958-1963), though no second miracle has been attributed to his intervention. A precise date for the canonisations will be set by a meeting of cardinals, the Vatican said. |
