Product Details
Saint John Paul II was a born leader, an attribute which was noticed by Pope Paul VI who elevated him to Cardinal in 1967. In 1978 at the age of 58, he was elected to the Papacy. He was canonized on April 27, 2014. The Saint John Paul II statue is made from wood in Italy and is a small size just 3" tall so you can display it anywhere for an intimate viewing. The Saint John Paul II statue comes in a handsome black case. Woodcarving in Val Gardena, Italy is a 400 year old tradition. The Val Gardena tradition goes back to the Middle Ages and this wooden statue of Saint John Paul II demonstrates how the generations of the master carvers from this area perfected their art. Made of Linden wood, the stylized features on the Saint John Paul II statue stir the heart.
Saint John Paul II is the patron saint of World Youth Day and Catholic sports. Pope John Paul II established World Youth Day out of his love for young people because of the way he prioritized taking groups on hiking and skiing trips that included Mass and theological discussions. Many young men choose Saint John Paul II for their Confirmation saint with the intent of emulating the good qualities of this saint, so the Saint John Paul II statue is an appropriate gift to give for that occasion, too.
