While Pope Francis
visits the USA Tuesday, September 22 to Sunday,
September 27, 2015, he will be canonizing a Franciscan friar named Father
Junipero Serra. Some 231 years have passed since Father Serra’s death. Is it
normal for canonizations to take that long?

As for the canonization of Venerable
Matt Talbot, we must continue to pray and remain patient with God’s
timetable.
