EUROPE/ITALY - Bishop Javier Echevarría (Opus Dei): the Most Holy Trinity has certainly flung the gates of paradise open wide for John Paul II

Tuesday, 5 April 2005

Rome (Fides Service) - “We can be certain that the Most Holy Trinity has flung open the gates of paradise for him, in reward for his constant zeal for souls, his perseverance in urging men and women to open the doors to Christ. At the same time with deep serenity we pray for the eternal repose of his soul. Besides what Saint Josemaría laid down for Opus Dei at times such as these, I encourage you to pray for John Paul II. Rest assured that as we have seen so often, these prayers are “boomerang prayers”, they go up to heaven and the Lord sends them down as abundant showers of grace.” (P.L.R.)
