Pope canonizes five saints before million-strong Spain crowd
Pope John Paul II canonized five 20th century saints in Madrid as crowds filled four boulevards near Plaza de Colon. The service featured the pope in a hydraulic chair due to mobility issues while urging Spaniards to stay faithful amid rising secularism. Pedro Poveda, killed in 1936, was among those honored.
