The Telegram from the Pope John Paul II

To Rev. Msgr Luigi Giussani
On the occasion of the Spiritual Exercises of the Fraternity of Communion and Liberation on the topic of “The Destiny of Man,” I am happy to extend to the numerous participants my cordial good wishes and the assurance of my spiritual closeness. While it is my hope that this timely meeting may contribute to a deeper knowledge of each person’s belonging to God and to stimulating each one’s faithfulness to Christ, man’s Redeemer, for a generous commitment to the work of the new evangelization, I invoke a great outpouring of heavenly favors and send to you, the responsibles of the Fraternity, and all those present, a special apostolic blessing.

IOANNES PAULUS PP II
