Synopsis

This book is a journey in prayer with Pope John Paul II, re-living his dramatic pilgrimage of March 20-26, 2000. For all that was said and written around the world about this trip?about the sensitive politics of the Middle East, about the places visited, about interreligious disputes?John Paul's pilgrimage was, in the end, about a man's prayer to God. This book approaches the events in that spirit. John Paul wanted the world to follow with him as he journeyed through the history of salvation, sensing God's hovering presence in a special time and place. Before starting, he predicted it would be an emotional experience, and it was: ?These have indeed been days of intense emotion, ? the pope said on the final day of his pilgrimage. ?A time when our soul has been stirred not only by the memory of what God has done but by his very presence.?
