Pope John Paul II
Image

The mystery of the Holy Night, which historically happened two thousand years ago, must be lived as a spiritual event in the 'today' of the Liturgy, the Pope clarified. The Word who found a dwelling in Mary's womb comes to knock on the heart of every person with singular intensity this Christmas.
Pope John Paul II

Work bears a particular mark of man and of humanity, the mark of a person operating within a community of persons
Pope John Paul II
Image
I hope that your example attracts many souls to the adoration of Jesus Christ who is present on the altar to be of comfort and hope to those who confide in him with faith and love they look on him as the Emmanuel, God with us, who wished to dwell amongst us: his heart in our heart
Pope John Paul II
Image
Euthanasia is a grave violation of the law of God, since it is the deliberate and morally unacceptable killing of a human person.
Pope John Paul II
Image
We can pray perfectly when we are out in the mountains or on a lake and we feel at one with nature. Nature speaks for us or rather speaks to us. We pray perfectly.
Pope John Paul II
Image
Not all are called to be artists in the specific sense of the term. Yet, as Genesis has it, all men and women are entrusted with the task of crafting their own life: in a certain sense, they are to make of it a work of art, a masterpiece.
Pope John Paul II
Image
There is no true peace without fairness, truth, justice and solidarity.
Pope John Paul II

If you want peace, work for justice. If you want justice, defend life. If you want life, embrace truth.

It's too early for a Polish pope.
Pope John Paul II
Image
It is not enough to long for a person as a good for oneself, one must also, and above all, long for that person's good.
Pope John Paul II
Image
Eucharistic worship is not so much worship of the inaccessible transcendence as worship of the divine condescension, and it is also the merciful and redeeming transformation of the world in the human heart
Pope John Paul II
