Commemorating Pope St. John Paul 20 Years After His Death
from Vatican Insider · host Vatican Insider
On April 2 we marked the 20th anniversary of the death of Pope St. John Paul at 9:37 pm on April 2, 2005, vigil of Divine Mercy Sunday, the new name given to the Second Sunday of Easter by John Paul! To commemorate that day and those years I have prepared a special about a man – a priest, a pope and a saint. It is about a life and legacy, seen through my memories and those of Cardinal Pietro Parolin, secretary of State, Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz, secretary to John Paul for 40 years, now archbishop emeritus of Krakow, Poland, and Polish Cardinal Konrad Krajewski, papal liturgical ceremonial official under John Paul and now, papal almoner under Francis.
