Who is on the shortlist to Sainthood?

Question

I know Mother Theresa should be on short list to sainthood--who else can we expect to become Saints?

Answer 1

Pope Benedict XVI? Father Coroapi? Father Groschell? Your local Priest, Bishop, Cardinal? The guy next to you in the Pew? Father Mitch Pacwa? Mother Angelica? Marcus Grodi?

If you mean the recently Desceased I'm only aware of Pope John Paul II, and Mother Theresa of Calcutta, but i'm sure there are some Saints among matyred nuns, priests, monks, lay people and others . ..

Didn't you know we are all called to be great Saints?

LOVE your neighbor as yourself.
Amen.

:Edit: Oh yeah Bishop Fulton Sheen he is Saint material, I wasn't aware of Pius IX

Answer 2

I've heard that the late Pope John Paul II is on the "fast track" to becoming a saint. As he should be IMO......

Pius IX (Pope from 1846 to 1878) should be on the list too IMO - he had to deal with, and stood fast against, the rising tide of modernism, secularism, and nationalism that was sweeping the European continent at the time.

Answer 3

All of God's covenant people may be called Saints.

Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

Answer 4
