Canonization of Junipero Serra in 2015


"In September, God willing, I will canonize Junipero Serra in the United States, who was the evangelizer of the west of the United States,"said Pope Francis on Thursday.

The Pope said since Serra has for centuries been considered a holy man, he had waved Church rules that require a second miracle to be attributed to the candidate for sainthood after his beatification.
