They will play for John Paul II

This Sunday we invite you to a concert by the Schola and Orchestra of the Catholic University of Lublin entitled "Sanctus mundi - saint of the world." The event is dedicated to St. John Paul II.
- On April 27 we will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the canonization of John Paul II, who is inextricably linked with our university. Sunday's concert, which is part of this anniversary celebration, will have an unusual form. It will be a kind of oratorio, with texts by the pope-poet," says Catholic University of Lublin vice spokesperson Monika Stojowska.
John Paul II is inextricably linked to the Catholic University of Lublin. Karol Wojtyla - first as a priest associate professor, then bishop, archbishop, cardinal - headed the Department of Ethics at the Faculty of Philosophy of the Catholic University of Lublin. He worked there for almost a quarter of a century - from 1954 until the conclave in 1978, when he became head of the Catholic Church. He had a circle of devoted friends and students at the Catholic University of Lublin, who called him "Uncle" during their summer trips together.
- We continue to draw from John Paul II, who as a human being was a genius because of his teaching that encompassed the totality of human life. Our university feels very strongly about this mission to tell people in Poland and around the world about him," says Monika Stojowska.
Admission to the "Sanctus mundi, or Saint of the World" concert at the Catholic University of Lublin's academic church is free. It will begin on Sunday at 1:30 pm.
