Blessed John Paul II

     Pope John Paull II broke a lot of records, he reigned 26 years as Pope making him the 2nd longest service as pope, he was been recognized as one of the most influential leaders in the 20th century. He was one of the most travelled world leaders and most traveled pope in history visiting 129 countries around the world, he has the highest number of saints and blesseds proclaimed more than the combined tally of his predecessors, 1340 blesseds and 483 saints. Now he is called Blessed John Paul II.

     Inspired by calls of "Santo Subito!" ("Saint Immediately!") from crowds gathered during the funeral Pope Benedict XVI began the beatification bypassing the normal restriction that five years must pass after a person's death before the beatification process can begin. For him to become saint 2 miracles must happen with his influence, Pope John Paul II was the one responsible for lowering the requirements of being a saint reformatting 4 to 2 miracles only before a person is declared as saint.
