Overview

On April 27, 2014, Pope John Paul II-the beloved leader of the Catholic Church from 1978 to 2005-was canonized a saint. Revered by millions of people throughout the world, the Polish-born pilgrim pope has long been embraced as a true man of the people. He was a manual laborer, an outdoorsman, a scholar, a poet, and a diplomat, who, from an early age, lived a life focused on sharing God's love with the world. To honor his life and legacy, the Saint John Paul II National Shrine in Washington, DC, opened its doors to the public in 2014. An initiative of the Knights of Columbus, the shrine is not only a place of prayer, it is also home to an extraordinary exhibit on the life of Saint John Paul II. A largely pictorial book, A Gift of Love takes readers on a walk though this exhibit, where they can share in the inspirational world of this Holy Father.
