Author Description

JOHN PAUL II AND AFRICA is Africa's little tribute to a Polish orphan who abandoned (or was abandoned by) all - father, mother, brother, sister and even self - and in the process, like Christ or even more than Christ was adopted by the whole world, Jews and Gentiles, Christians and non Christians, young and old. In his humble way, he meant a lot to everyone and particularly so to the Catholic Church in Africa. Dr. Rose Ure Mezu claims the unique honor of being the first to address him as a "Saint," and as “John Paul, the Great” while he was still living (2004; 2005)
