through Christ’s Passion and Resurrection. We’ve put together a quick recap
here, just in case you missed any of the happenings at the Saint John Paul II National Shrine and other John Paul II news.
-Hundreds came to the Shrine on Saturday, March 28, to
venerate eight rare relics as part of the Relics of the Passion Prayer Program. See photos here.
-The Shrine took part in a Seven-Church Pilgrimage on Holy Thursday.
-A Knights of Columbus Documentary, John Paul II in America: Uniting a Continent, began airing on national television this past
weekend. It will continue to air throughout the month of April. Check the
current schedule here.
-There is a beautiful Easter Reflection on the Shrine’s website, as well as reflection for the
upcoming Feast of Divine Mercy.
-This Saturday, April 11, Andreas Widmer, author of The Pope and the CEO and former Swiss
Guard for Saint John Paul II, will be speaking at the Shrine. After the talk there will be time for veneration
of the relics of St. John Paul II, followed by a Vigil Mass of Divine
Mercy.
