Synopsis "John Paul II or the Saint of the youth (in English)"
JOHN PAUL II! Throughout the history of mankind, no one ever to such an extent was aware of that we young people are the future of the world; no one has ever so much understood that the reins of the world will pass inexorably to our hands; no one ever apprehended so much that youth is the only hope for a world in distress; no one has bothered so much to make us understand today, the great responsibilities that will be ours tomorrow; no one exerted himself suchlike in order to prepare us to deal effectively with the numerous challenges we face in building a better world. No other man spoke so much to us, no other man knew how to speak to us so well, no other man knew suchlike to find the right words to tell us what we need to know: the TRUTH. At this very moment of his canonization, young people from all continents, young people from diverse backgrounds as John Paul II liked to gather, young people not all being Catholics and one even undenominational - (proof, if any needed, of the universality of the Old Pope and illustration, in a way that cannot be more eloquent, of the ability of his message to transcend religious boundaries) - driven by the firm belief that today, more than ever, John Paul II continues to speak to us, assigned themselves the task of helping you to listen to the Old Man, providing you with his messages on the occasion of the World Youth Days in eight languages: Polish, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Dutch. Dear young friend, don't hesitate then to quench from this inexhaustible source of wisdom from which John Paul II made us drink all his life; it will surely help you give the appropriate meaning to your life.
