JOHN PAUL II: "GIVE TO US LORD PEACE IN OUR DAYS"

VATICAN CITY, OCT 8, 2001 (VIS) - John Paul II received pilgrims this morning who had come for yesterday's beatification. He told them: "Above all, I desire to share with you and entrust to the Lord the anguish and concern aroused in us in this delicate moment of the international life."

After giving thanks to God for "those luminous examples of holiness offered by the new blesseds: Ignatius Maloyan, Nikolaus Gross, Alfonso Maria Fusco, Tommaso Maria Fusco, Emilie Tavernier Gamelin, Eugenia Picco and Maria Euthymia Uffing," the Pope said, "Let us renew to Him the prayer for peace: 'Da pacem Domine in diebus nostris! - Give to us Lord peace in our days!"
