Last Thursday, during a gathering with the Roman clergy, Pope Francis confirmed the recent rumors of the canonization of Pope Paul VI this year, beatified by him on October 19, 2014.
Click for the 25 second remarks:
"There are already two Bishop of Rome Saints.
"Paul VI will be made a Saint this year. Two Saints, one with the cause of beatification underway, John Paul I; the cause is open.
"And two, Benedict and I, on the waiting list. Pray for us!"
Coincidentally, July 25, 2018 marks the fiftieth anniversary of the prophetic Paul VI encyclical Humanae Vitae on the two inseparable meanings of the marital/procreative act and on the violence which is done to love and to life by divorcing those two inhering meanings from each other.
