Pope Leo XIV has canonized Venezuela's “doctor of the poor” before tens of thousands of people. He has given the South American nation its first saint. José Gregorio Hernández, known for his dedication to the poor, was made a saint Sunday alongside Mother Carmen Rendiles Martínez, the founder of a Venezuelan religious order. Thousands of Venezuelans poured into St. Peter’s Square for the Mass. The ceremony will also canonize Papua New Guinea's first saint, Peter To Rot. He was a layman killed in prison in 1945 for standing up for monogamous marriage. In all, seven people will be canonized in a ceremony that Pope Francis put in motion in some of his final acts as pope.
