Some may wonder why a special case has been made of this man, and his beatification brought forward, in spite of existing rules forbidding this. It's great to read what Keith Fournier said: "This Polish Pope was so filled with the love of God it was contagious ........ He had a heart that embraced the whole world like the Heart of the One whom he represented on earth." The full text of his tribute can be found at Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
You can listen to the announcement in the picture below (it's only 27 seconds) which was made last Friday at the Vatican, and which our blog published, sound and all, on the very day the date was announced!
