Pope Francis Canonizes 2 New Italian Saints | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Pope Francis has proclaimed two new Italian saints for the Catholic Church. With a Mass in Saint Peter's Square, the Holy Father canonized the founder of the Scalabrinians, who dedicated his mission to those who had to leave their homelands in search or work, and a layman who gave his life to caring for the sick. EWTN Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, joins to tell us about the canonization and the Church's newest saints. Thonhauser said that these 2 new saints are programmatic for the pontificate. He shares what he meant by that. Thonhauser explains what Pope Francis said about this week's celebrations of the 2nd Vatican Council.
