The National Papal March will pass the streets of Warsaw next Saturday.
– Saint John Paul II was the unquestionable spiritual guide of respective generations of Poles. He firmly defended the life, dignity and well-being of the human individual and its right to development, constituting the inviolable foundation of the life of the human community. He showed the beauty of marital love and vocation to parenthood – the organizers compose on March website.
They besides point out that the assembly is to respond to attacks on the Pope and on religion and the Church.
– present we must face the attempts to undermine his holiness and merit for the Church and Homeland. The current events show that we have turned our voice down besides much in the communicative inviting to the agenda after John Paul II. In the absence of a strong consequence to the acceleration of attacks on the Pope, we allowed distrust and hatred of Catholic religion and the Church, especially among the most susceptible young generation, to be aroused.
– So let us go together in defence of the Pope's good name, giving a clear signal that both his character and the legacy left to us, are inactive signs on the way of increasing up to full humanity and lead us on the way of religion – the organizers encourage us.
How notes the co-organiser of the March Margaret Żaryn, 40th anniversary of the death of Blessed Fr Popiełuszko combines his message "Enjoy the Evil with Good" with the teachings of John Paul II and cardinals. Stefan Wyszynski:
– These 3 characters are a moral basis for us and have a patriotic dimension," she stressed.
