On May 1, 2011, the Vatican officially admitted John Paul II into the ranks of the blessed and made a crucial step towards sainthood in one of the largest Vatican Masses in history. Pope Benedict XVI praised John Paul for fighting the seemingly irreversible movement of communism with faith, courage, and the strength of a titan, a strength which came to him from God.He restored Christianity its true face as a religion of hope.
