In this book we are privileged to witness the impact of the life and work of perhaps the most beloved charismatic leader of the twentieth century: Saint Pope John Paul II. His story is presented by two individuals, one a journalist and the other the Postulator of his cause for canonization, who were very close to him from the beginning to the end of his pontificate. Speaking with a single voice, they testify to the invaluable legacy of the man who loved and lived in constant service to others. They detail the miracle that was approved for his canonization, an event which gives us all pause to recall the unbeatable spirit of this beloved Pope who changed the world and won its heart.

Here are their stories, experiences and testimonies which together provide a unique biographical and personal account of the pontificate of this Pope who is now a saint.

In her role she has presented to her audience the key moments in the history of the Holy See. A widely published author, her position as spokes-person for the Spanish-speaking world enabled her to travel extensively with John Paul II on his missions to the world.

Msgr. Slawomir Oder (Poland, 1960) obtained two doctorates from Rome's Leteran Univeristy, in Economcis and Canon Law, before being ordained a priest in 1989 - one of the first Polish priests to be ordained after the collapse of Communism in 1989.
