Pope John Paul II lived his priesthood in deep continuity with his teaching. From his apostolic exhortation Pastores Dabo Vobis (I Will Give You Shepherds): “The authority of Jesus Christ as head coincides.., with his service, with his gift, with his total, humble and loving dedication on behalf of the Church…. The spiritual existence of every priest receives its life and inspiration from exactly this type of authority.” (PDV 21) Thanks be to God for the saintly witness of this mine worker, poet, philosopher, actor, priest, bishop, and vicar of Christ, who this weekend will be recognized as a saint by the Catholic Church. Saint John Paul II, as the primary spiritual inspiration for The Christopher Inn International, please keep our apostolate in your efficacious prayers, that, like you, we will be totally at the disposal of the will of God.
