St. Paul VI, born Giovanni Montini, was pope from 1963 to 1978. While Archbishop of Milan, he was a close companion to Pope John XXIII and participated in the Second Vatican Council. After the death of the pope, he was elected by the College of Cardinals and took the name Paul. He continued reforming the Church through the Second Vatican Council, and shaped the church as we know it today.
