    I remember that day as a freshman student standing on the steps leading into the Shrine. We had completed our all-night vigil the night before, I played the marimba along with other musicians as a host of students sang and prayed. Later that morning just prior to the Pope’s arrival as the nuns were walking up the stairs, I decided to be bold and began handing flowers to some of the nuns from a decorated 50-gal barrel next to the entrance. I jumped on top of the drum with a handful of flowers and joined in the excitement as Pope John Paul 2 was climbing the stairs going back and forth shaking hands. The secret service had me eventually step down, but I remember his face full of love as our eyes met and our hands clasped. My uncle remembers seeing me on TV that morning with my blue ski cap. He is our family saint, our oldest son Jon Paulo is named after him, and we are so thankful for the blessings we have received from his intercession.

      It sounds like it was a great experience wich to this day you hold in your heart and it impacts you life - just as Saint John Paul II would want to happen. He touched the heart of all he encountered and is is great to hear such impact stories as yours. God Bless!

    Growing up in a Fundamentalist Baptist family, my parents and grandparents always spoke ill of the Catholic Church and the Pope. At 42, and after being Catholic for one year this week, I truly do not understand their hatred. This man was a giant in the eyes of many, including non-Catholics. He truly was a gift from God to us all.

    St John Paul was the Great Pope one of the best in Church history and He was very human and in his Native Poland He is the biggest hero ! I was study for priest in Rome when He was new pope and me My name is Peter and my Twin brother is Paul and We were very very close to Pope St John Paul and He was like our real Father ! I have great memories and after He was shot in St Peter piazza in 13 . May / 1981 we were praying Holy Rosary all over the World people did pray for Holy Father !

      According to the Blessed Mother’s message to Fr Stefano Gobbi, he was chosen, prepared and guided by her to provide Jesus’s flock with a worthy shepherd despite the errors being spread in the Church behind the scenes (which are now blatantly obvious to those that are not deceived). He was Our Blessed mother’s gift to us by concession of her Son, our Blessed Lord.

      @@annakowalska9935He was the worst heretic in Church history and one of the most wicked mans ever to walk on the Earth. He preached universal salvation, he preached that everyone is Jesus Christ, he was antichrist of the Apocalypse, the Beast of the Revelation. He was definitely not a Saint, he was an idolater and an antipope and he wasnt even remotely Catholic. And anyone who has respect for him or adores him or accepts him as a saint is on the road to hell.
