Livin_the_MASS Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Sounds like in late October John Paul II's beatification will take place.

loveletslive Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 ah darn i had heard april and was hoping it would be then because i'll already be in europe then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 He canonized my favorite saint (Mother Duchesne), so I'll ask her to pray for his beatification. I'll add a request that it be done in when LoveLetsLive can attend (but I make no promises in that regard) - Mother Duchesne was from Europe herself, so I'm sure she'll be sympathetic to your request!

Lisa Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Yay!!!! Anybody want to buy me a plane ticket to Italia? In the words of the almost beatified Pope John Paul II: " We are an Easter people and Hallelujah is our song!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hinter dem Horizont Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Congratulations Pope John Paul II. You were very liberal but I won't judge you for that. My favourite popes will always be Pius XII and Benedic XIV but I love you too Paul II because you're a great man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) On some more traditionalist-minded forums I occasionally peruse, SSPX attendees and supporters never have anything good to say about John Paul II, but now the vitriol and outright [b]hate [/b]is really coming out among them. What's worse is that I've also seen some posts from diocesan, FSSP, and/or ICRSS Latin Mass attendees who say they will switch to the SSPX or SSPV if John Paul II gets beatified and/or canonized. Oh well. May the door not hit them in the butt on the way out the door. Edited January 15, 2011 by Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightofChrist Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 But not all traditionalists are like that, not even all of the SSPX, let's not base our opinion for a whole group of people based on a few. Most of the one's I know only have reservations on the quickness of his Beatification, but it is not a rejection it, and do accept it. John Paul II, Bishop of Rome, pray for us!

KnightofChrist Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Well good, I didn't mean you personally, but it would be sad for this thread to turn into a fight between [i]any of us[/i]. That being said, I believe John Paul II's greatest accomplishment was his fight and rescept for the sanctity of life. A truth he not only spoke but lived out even in pain and suffering towards the end of his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be watching the beatification on EWTN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
