Seliger Johannes Paul II. Sohn Polens und Vater des Vereinigten Europas

Abstract

Pope John Pauls II is the most famous person in Polish history. He has been acclaimed as one of the most influential leaders of the 20th century. It is widely accepted that he was important in ending communism in Poland and eventually all of Europe. He also helped Poland to enter European Union. After his death the Church in Poland feels like an orphan, but sees chances in the heritage, which John Paul II left for the Church in his own Homeland.
