“Science can purify religion from error and superstition. Religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.”
BLESSED POPE JOHN PAUL II
“Even in the devotion to, or in the reception of the Eucharist: the faithful are only truly united to Christ and to his Mystical Body, the Church, through the Bishops. Cut off from the Bishops not even devotion to the Eucharist itself can unite the faithful to the Mystical Body of Christ.”
Pope John Paul II, Ecclesia de Eucharistia 2003, Chap 4, part 39
Czestochowa, Poland. The city in the southern Poland unveiled a giant statue of the Pope John Paul II today. The white fiberglass figure rises about five stories, or more than 45 feet, on a hill overlooking the city. It was funded by a businessman, Leszek Lyson, in gratitude for what he believes was an intervention by the late pontiff in saving his drowning son.
