Breaking news: Pope Francis to canonize Bl. Junipero Serra

Pope Francis announced today that he will canonize Blessed Junipero Serra, the missionary Priest who brought Catholicism to the west coast of America, on his visit to the USA, this September.
Serra was born in Spain in 1713 and came to America to evangelize and establish missions up and down the California coast. Serra died in Carmel California in 1784.  Pope Francis waived the requirement of a 2nd miracle due to his holy and virtuos life and being a great evangelizer!
