While we are
very content with our statue of Blessed John Paul II here at the Shrine, we
can’t help but be impressed by the size of the statue being installed in Poland this week.
Workers are
currently putting the finishing touches on 45-foot tall, white fiberglass
statue of our beloved pontiff, who is already towering over the southern town
of Czestochowa. See this site for some pictures of this massive work of art.
Lesek Lyson,
who is funding the project, said that the statue “should make everyone stop and
think about life.”
One thing is
for sure: the outstretched arms of Blessed John Paul II will never be forgotten
in Czestochowa.
