Reflect
When Karol Wojtyla became Pope John Paul II in 1978, he was an avid skier, hiker, and swimmer. But during his nearly 27-year pontificate, age and health issues caught up with him, as they do with us all. Even when he was in pain and unsteady, the pope continued to evangelize in person, including trips to Switzerland and France less than a year before his death.
Pray
St. John Paul II, help me to serve God
even on the days my feet hurt and my head aches.
