Father Carrón tells us that John Paul was a pope seized by Christ

| | Comments (0)
Father Julián Carrón, president of the Fraternity of Communion and Liberation was interviewed by the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano on the beatification of Pope John Paul II. Father Carrón said that "beatification of John Paul II ... is a 'strong invitation' to conversion."

Keeping in mind what Blessed John Paul did for Communion and Liberation in recognizing the charism proposed by Father Luigi Giussani, Father Carrón recalled the words of John Paul who considered that a Movement "becomes a special instrument for a personal and ever-new adherence to the mystery of Christ." For those who follow the path to Christ offered by Communion and Liberation will know that the vocation of being a part of Communion and Liberation --given by the Holy Spirit-- means bringing "the truth, beauty and peace that are encountered in Christ the Redeemer" to the world.
