John Paul II has been beatified. On April 30, his coffin was exhibited at the center of the Basilica of San Pedro to be venerated by thousands of faithful who have participated in the celebration of the beatification.
say they were more than 60,000 people that walked past his coffin in the first 5 hours. They also say that was guarded by four men of the guard at the Vatican.
John Paul II always seemed a good man. The first years, I admired a father so young, having spent my childhood with the stale Paul VI, so arcane customs. In contrast, the new pope, he showed us his human side in a swimsuit, for us to see it was a great athlete.
We saw him travel to many corners of our planet, always kissing and worshiping the ground he visited, taking all the love of "his" church. Let children, youth and adults from approaching him. He listened to everyone. Mingled with the people and showed humility as a human.
I will always love. When he died Unexpectedly my brother, all my prayers "were many, one summer," the sent to where they had to get through the image of John Paul I always carry in my head. Believe that he needed help, to bring the light needed to illuminate the wandering soul and of my brother.
do not believe in the Church, I've told many times. Gradually, I stopped believing in it. As I read more about ancient intrigue, the more I rebelled against it.
During the papacy of John Paul II, in my income statement, picked up the custom of marking the percentage of my taxes for church property. I wanted to help bring everything out that pope to world welfare.
This year, I phoned the tax office to change my draft: Not a penny more of my own to support so many pedophiles and child traffickers-read issue of stolen children, also more and more frequently We charge to enter the great cathedrals Receivable for a Church! And I help support!. Now I devote to social welfare (.-)
In 2007, when we visited the Vatican, walking beside his grave, I felt a special emotion, cried for no before being able to go to meet him in life. I prayed that now that he is in his heaven, to continue helping my daughters grow up and become good people.
In this was, when I suddenly saw a rosary dropped, launched after me between my legs, on the slab of his tomb. To see who would have done, I discovered my little daughter, who then was 16. The Vatican guards guarding the tomb was unfazed. I scolded my daughter for doing such a thing, but she replied that she did, that the Pope gave him his blessing. kissed my child for his noble gesture holding the tear and clarifying the speech. I apologized to the guard by the outburst youth. But he said no problem, had allowed upon request of the girl ... And I did not hear so absorbed as it was before the silent grave, then do not suffer the "hectic" of people who joined us by museums, to the Sistine Chapel.
So we went back home with a rosary "blessed" as my daughter, with only a few seconds have been sitting on the tomb of the great Pope. Now, decorate like a relic, my daughter's messy room.
But every time I look, I remember the emotion felt at the Pantheon where I believe we were very close to the papal spirit.
Now that you went to the Papal history, so will the Pope. A modern Pope will be named Holy ... (:-) (?)
I stay with her work. Its okay to do for humanity. His knowledge to be provided with the weak. With his humility to forgive the deranged to soul of tried to kill him.
I'll take your picture with Teresa of Calcutta, listening in situ, the plight of the poor in Asian countries.
I stay with her serene expression, looking sweet, sincere smile and the soft voice of his words in the Plaza of the Vatican, during any of your messages of peace every Christmas. I keep wondering who is in his heaven and from there, continue to pray for humanity ...
