APRIL 29, 2013 — Patrick Novecosky, editor of this blog and editor-in-chief of Legatus magazine, was a guest on Iowa Catholic Radio in Des Moines, Iowa, this morning.
He appeared on the Iowa Catholic Radio Morning Show with Jeanne Wells and Dowling Catholic Hall of Famer Mark Amadeo. They asked Patrick about blog and social media reports that Blessed Pope John Paul II will be canonized in October — a mere eight-and-a-half years after his death.
A week ago, Vatican insider Andrea Tornielli published an article in the Italian newspaper La Stampa saying that Vatican’s medical council charged with reviewing a possible miraculous healing attributable to John Paul II has ruled it “inexplicable” and has forwarded the file to the Vatican Congregation for the Saints for further study.
