The Life and Legacy of Pope John Paul II

On July 5, Pope Francis approved John Paul for sainthood, saying that Pope John XXIII and John Paul II will be canonized together. The date has not yet been established, although December 8, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception has been suggested. Irrespective of the details, John Paulâ€™s canonization appears imminent.

From Poland, John Paulâ€™s longtime private secretary, Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz, rejoiced at the news. â€œI thank God that I will live to see the elevation to sainthood the person who I served with love to the last beating of his heart,â€ he stated. Abraham Foxman, as director of the Jewish organization the Anti-Defamation League, received four audiences with Pope John Paul. He spoke for John Paulâ€™s numerous supporters when he said, â€œFor many of us Pope John Paul is already a saint, this just formalizes it.â€

John Paulâ€™s pontificate lasted nearly twenty-seven years, one of the longest in papal history. During that time he had an unprecedented amount of contact with the public, including Catholics, non-Catholics, and foreign leaders. He made 104 pastoral visits outside Italy, and 146 within. The Vatican estimates that more than 17.6 million pilgrims participated in his regular Wednesday general audiences alone. He made 38 official visits and met with government leaders on 984 different occasions.
