The last thing: the Pope praises the new saints Oscar Romero, Pope Paul VI
The latest on canonizations of the Catholic Church on Sunday (all local times).
11:25 p.m.
Pope Francis has praised the new saints, Pope Paul VI and assassinated Salvadoran Archbishop Oscar Romero as prophets of a church that cares for the poor while presiding over a canonization ceremony.
The first Latin American Pope in history warned in his homily on Sunday of the "danger" represented by wealth, and called "love of money the root of all evil." He said: "We see this where money is in the center, there is no place for God or for man."
Francis said that Paul, who oversaw the meetings of the 1960s that modernized the Catholic Church, survived deep misunderstandings to "cross new boundaries" to follow the call of Christ. He praised Romero, who was shot dead by the right-wing death squads of El Salvador, for having renounced his own life for being "close to the poor and their people."
The two were canonized along with five other people at the beginning of Sunday Mass.

Pope Francis declared Pope Paul VI and killed Salvadoran archbishop Oscar Romero, reciting in Latin the canonization rite at the beginning of the Mass in St. Peter's Square.
After listening to brief biographies of Pablo, Romero and five other canonized people on Sunday, Francisco declared them saints and "decreed that they should be venerated as such throughout the church."
The crowd of thousands in St. Peter's Square applauded when Francis pronounced the rite. Among them were some 5,000 Salvadoran pilgrims who traveled to Rome to honor their hero, Romero, who faced the brutal military dictatorship of El Salvador to defend the rights of the poor and was killed when he said the mass.

Pope Francis presides over the canonization of two of the leading figures of the twentieth century Catholic Church: Pope Paul VI, who oversaw the reforms of the modernizing church of the 1960s, and Archbishop Oscar Romero, an icon of rights human being who was killed for his defense of the poor of el salvador.
As proof of the strong influence that both men had on the first Latin American pope in history, Francis wore the bloodstained rope belt that Romero wore when he was shot dead in 1980 and also used Paul VI's cane, the chalice and the dress of pallium.
When Francis entered at the beginning of the Mass, portraits of the two men fluttered in the breeze of the St. Peter's Basilica, along with five others who were canonized in a service meant to show young people that holiness can be achieve on each walk. of life.
Some 5,000 Salvadoran pilgrims traveled to Rome and tens of thousands of Salvadorans stayed up all night at home to watch them on giant television screens in front of the Cathedral of San Salvador, where the remains of Romero are.
For many, it was the culmination of a tense and politicized campaign for the church to formally honor a man who publicly denounced the repression by the military dictatorship of El Salvador at the beginning of the 1980-1992 civil war in the country.
