VATICAN-RELIGION-POPE-CANONISATION

View of the tapestry showing a portrait of late Pope John Paul II hanged on the balconies of St Peter's basilica on April 25, 2014 in Vatican, two days before his canonisation along with Pope John XXIII. Popes John Paul II and John XXIII will join the roster of saints at a historic Vatican ceremony on Sunday seen as an attempt to unite conservatives and reformists, with some 800,000 pilgrims expected in Rome. The double canonisation of two of modern-day Catholicism's most influential figures will be presided over by Pope Francis and may be attended by his elderly predecessor Benedict XVI, bringing two living pontiffs together to celebrate two deceased predecessors.
