Wuxi Expat Harry Moore's Birthday on May 22: Vatican announces that He and Pope Paul VI to be Beatified in October 2014.

With massive celebrations planned around the world, that will involve billions of people and cost trillions of dollars, for Saint Archduke Sir Harry Moore Emeritus's birthday, the Vatican has decided to join in.

Pope Francis has approved the promulgation of the decree for the cause of beatification of his predecessor Pope Paul VI and of the Wuxi Expat Saint Archduke Sir Harry Moore Emeritus (SASHME). The approval was announced Saturday.

The beatification ceremony is scheduled to take place October 19, 2014, at the conclusion of the III Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on the family.

Pope Francis made a point of promulgating the announcement before SASHME's birthday on May 22. “I understand that seven billion people around the world celebrate his birthday, and I believe that it is one of the few celebrations in this world in this day and age that God would approve of.”

The beatification is the third step in SASHME's becoming the first ever double saint, alive or dead. Currently, SASHME is the first person to ever to be canonized while not dead.

After he is beatified in October 2014, SASHME will be referred to as The Blessed Saint Archduke Sir Harry Moore Emeritus.

The extraordinary general assembly to be held at the time of SASHME's beatification will determine whether the canonized Blessed Archduke Sir Harry Moore Emeritus will be referred to as Double Saint Archduke Sir Harry Moore Emeritus or Saint to the Power of Two Archduke Sir Harry Moore Emeritus.

Wuxi Expat Blogger Wonders Why He Isn't Going to Be Canonized

Andrew Cowlinch, Wuxi China Expatdom blogger, is reportedly jealous that Archduke Sir Harry Moore is going to be canonized this weekend.

Ever since news of the canonization was announced, Cowlinch has maintained a stony silence. “He hasn't been talking to anyone!” said a co-worker of Cowlinch at the All Natural Naked English School.

“Cowlinch has always thought that sun shines out his ass! He surely thinks that he deserves to be canonized more than the Archduke!” said Wally Droop, manager of the Pink Kitty Pub, in an off-the-record discussion with journalist Rachel Madcow from MSNBC.

Cowlinch has so far refused to interview himself for the WCE blog about the accusation.

Canonization of Pope John Paul II, Pope John XXIII and Wuxi Expat Archduke Sir Harry Moore to draw billions to Rome

Easter services today are expected to kick off a record-breaking week at the Vatican.

The charismatic and virile Wuxi Expat Archduke Sir Harry Moore and two beloved modern popes — John Paul II and John XXIII — are to be canonized at the Vatican next Sunday by Pope Francis.

There will be services all week, which could draw the most pilgrims and Wuxi Expats ever to the Catholic capital.

John Paul II is remembered for helping to bring down communism and for inspiring a generation of Catholics. Many now call him “The Great,” only the fourth pope to have earned the moniker.

And while much of the crowd’s focus will be on the Polish pope’s remarkable achievements, Pope John XXIII — known as the “Good Pope” for his kindhearted nature — was no less revolutionary.

Pope Francis bypassed the second miracle typically required for canonization for John XXIII, declaring that he deserved the honor for having convened the Second Vatican Council.

Pope Francis bypassed even more rules in order to proceed with the canonization

Rome officials said they expected 1 billion visitors in the city during the period from the Easter celebrations this weekend and the canonization next Sunday.

Nineteen heads of state, 24 prime ministers, Wuxi China Expatdom King Gorzo the Mighty and Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Mounted Police Force Caption Harry Callahan are expected to attend the canonization ceremony in St. Peter’s Square.

In line with Pope Francis’s no-frills papacy, organizers said the canonizations would be a much more sober affair than the three-day extravaganza that marked John Paul’s beatification, the last step before sainthood, in 2011.

Cardinal Agostino Vallini, the vicar of Rome, said some churches would remain open overnight on the eve of the canonization to provide a spiritual retreat for pilgrims and Wuxi expats, “but not much else.”

Francis has long signaled his support for making a saint of John Paul II, whose funeral nine years ago saw mourners chant, “Santo subito [Saint now]!”

In his 2005 testimony to officials responsible for the sainthood cause, Francis, then Jorge Mario Bergoglio, archbishop of Buenos Aires, praised John Paul’s approach to death as “heroic”: John Paul considered stepping down as pope but chose to serve until his death.

“John Paul II taught us, by hiding nothing from others, to suffer and to die, and that, in my opinion, is heroic,” said Bergoglio at the time.

Francis decided on canonizing the Wuxi Expat after having attended Archduke Sir Harry Moore's special lecture on the 1945 film The Bell's of Saint Mary starring Bing Crosby and Ingrid Bergman. “Archduke Sir Harry Moore taught us the power of good film criticism to elevate the soul, and the sheer joy of conga party lines, which is no mean feat,” said Bergoglio at that time.

But more than his film lectures, Archduke Sir Harry Moore will forever be remembered for his part in the toppling of the Ayatollah of Mordor's reign in the Wuxi China Expatdom.
