i miss you, pope john paul…i know you’re very happy where you are right now and it’s more than comforting to know that.
as NBC’s stephen weeke put it: Everything about John Paul and his pontificate was super-sized, as he broke every previous papal record with his efforts in life. It’s only natural then that he should continue to go to great lengths, even in death.
couldn’t have put it any better. (this pic makes my eyes go watery. i don’t know why.)
visit this site to learn more about the campaign for the late pope’s beatification and sainthood. below is an english version of the prayer i got from the site. let us pray this always so we can help elevate our pope as the ‘blessed john paul II’.
Servant of God, the Pope John Paul II
