When the announcement came that a Polish man had been elected Pope, I remember my Grandfather was filled with pride.
Over the years Pope John Paul II helped us to renew our faith and strive to be better Catholics.
This Pope loved Mary our Blessed Mother. This love strengthened my devotion to reciting the Rosary.
His worldwide youth conferences really touched my heart. This was a Pope who wanted to make a difference to future generations.
God Bless John Paul II (we will always love you).

Thanks for your family story and personal testimony.
