Through the photographs, short quotations, and picture legends, the exhibit presents special moments from the Holy Father’s 104 pilgrimages throughout the world, meeting with the youth and with political and religious leaders.</div> <bR> <div> The first version of the exhibit was prepared by the Polish Cultural Foundation Inc., of Boston and the Publisher “Kwadrat”, of Krakow, to celebrate the 25<FONT SIZE="1" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" >th</FONT> Anniversary of John Paul II’s Pontificate. Its inaugural showing was in Boston on September 27, 2003. Since that date, due to continuous public interest, the exhibit was presented for 2.5 years in over 20 cities on the Eastern and Western parts of the United States. In 2005, the exhibit was updated and expanded to include the last two years of Pope John Paul II’s Pontificate and his funeral. Since May 2005, a duplicate copy of the exhibit is traveling through Poland.</div> <bR> <div> The purpose of the exhibit is to help people to pay homage to the Holy Father, to magnify his profile, to remind visitors of the events to which they were witness and to help to recognize how much we all are indebted to him and his teachings.</div> <bR> <div> Pope John Paul II tireless pilgrimages “to the ends of the earth” and his devotion to humanity brought him great admiration throughout the world. When he was living, he was generally recognized as being the greatest moral authority and the MESSENGER OF LOVE, JUSTICE, AND PEACE to all. After his death, despite the fact that his beatification has only started, he is recognized by many as a SAINT.</div> <bR> <div> Thanks to the great efforts and support of the Embassy of the Republic of Poland the exhibit will be shown from March 21 to April 9, 2006, at the Pope John Paul II Cultural Center in Washington D.C. Visitors can view the exhibit during the Center’s hours of operation: Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday from 12 noon to 5 p.m.</div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
