I know I'm likely the only Catholic here, but I ask that you, my Christian brothers and sisters please pray for the peaceful passing of the pope. Catholic or not, I think most people can agree that he is truly a man of peace and a wonderful examply of faith in God.

I ask for prayers for his peaceful passing as it is pretty certain he will go to join Our Lord soon.

Heavenly Father, take now unto Yourself your servant, John Paul II. Please say unto him, "Well done good and faithful servant." Bring him home to You, Lord God to whom all praise and glory is worthy.

Chirst be with you all.

"It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; he is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; he is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is he who provokes you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is he who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is he who reads in your hearts your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle. It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be ground down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and more fraternal."

Pope John Paul II

God grant him rest.

when? just now?? like 20 minutes ago he wasnt

2:37 Eastern Time. :'(

oh wow, cause i was just watching and he was alive-sad stuff :'(

How sad! He was alive this morning. I saw it on tv.

I'm glad he doesn't have to deal with the pain he's had recently, and that he was able to finally go to the place he's been striving for so long.

^ i second that.

he was a spiritual inspiration to many and he will be missed.
