Pope John Paul’s life is cause for celebration. King’s College invites the public to join the College community in honoring him and his remarkable contributions in a service of scripture reading, song, and a brief homily.

The life and spiritual leadership of Pope John Paul II inspired Catholics and, indeed, people of all faiths and nationalities around the globe. The Holy Father was an outspoken and fervent voice for freedom and justice and an untiring advocate for the sanctity of all human life.
