Q. 1. When is the Feast of Pope John-Paul II celebrated?

A. 1. The Church has set aside October 22 nd as the feast day of blessed Pope John Paul II. While the feast day is normally set on the date that the person died, because April 2 conflicted with Holy Week in certain years, the Church determined that it was best to set aside the day on which Blessed Pope John Paul II was installed as Pope in 1978.
