Saint John Paul II, known as John Paul the Great, was born Karol Wojtyla in Poland and had an active happy youth. Yet before his 21st birthday, his whole family had died. He studied for the priesthood in secret during the Nazis and then Communism control of Poland. He was secretly ordained in 1946. For the next 20 years, he was a pastor, a professor, and a student himself. In 1978 Karol Wojtyla became the first non-Italian Pope of the Catholic Church. He traveled to over 100 countries, was a prolific writer, and was loved by youth worldwide. He survived an assassination attempt in 1981 and even forgave the assassin. Pope John Paul died of Parkinson’s disease and was the second longest reigning Pope.
