There have only been 2 popes named John Paul. John Paul 11 died last year. The pope immediately preceding him was John Paul 1 who lasted for only one month. Before him was Paul V1.

The pope before John Paul II was, believe it or not, John Paul I (formerly Albino Cardinal Luciani). He died about a month after becoming pope in 1978.

Who is John Paul XII? Do you mean John Paul II ? and please understand that ecumenical has different meanings depending on usage. For example, the Nicene council was considered ecumenical but was only Catholic bishops.

It was John XI (931-36) "He was the son of Pope Sergius III, by Marozia, and if possible he supassed his parents in crime. Elected pope at age of eighteen, Alberic, his half brother, expelled him from Rome and imprisoned thier mother Marozia. Stephen VIII (939-942) made himself so obnoxious to the Romans that they mutilated him."-Crimes of Christianity By G.W. Foote and J.M. Wheeler, Vol. 1 [129:9]
