How did Pope John Paul II change the world?
How is he a HERO not just to christians but to everyone?!?
Pope Paul II was a charismatic man, who visited his native country four times, or may be more. In early 1980 he came to Katowice, Industrial area, where he said: " do not fear, when the time of true will come". He encouraged Polish people to go on strike and be resilient against Russian oppression. He influenced Poland and many people of faith to follow Christ in beliefs. Dedication to all nations made him a special ambassador of Catholicism.As you know, he was a target of assassination attempt. He was a symbol of suffer and courage, as a man he was injured during an accident, when he was young. During his visit in America he said: " I came to say that I am your Friend". He was a great diplomat as well when President Gorbachev and President Regan had plans to abolish Berlin Wall. In 1989 it happened with his blessing and words of forgiveness toward Germans. Russian had many opponents in Catholic CHurch. He was allowed to come to Lithuania and Belorussian. Where his words were spoken his voice was heard as a man of forgiveness and blessing towards everybody. His altruistic love for people was his policy of religion and his message from God. May God bless him and memory of him. He will not be forgotten.
