For the past quarter century, Pope John Paul II led Catholicism through perhaps the most trying epoch of its history, challenged by some of the most searching examinations of the Church's teachings.

This is the only COMPLETE DVD of John Paul II's incredible life, from his early days in Poland to his rise from priest to bishop to cardinal, his 26-year reign as Pope, and his poignant passing at the Vatican. Added bonus on election of the new Pope and the movement to grant sainthood to John Paul II. Writer Bernard Gavzer has won Five Emmy Awards, and many of the still and video scenes are rare reflections of the late Pope.

Includes English, Polish and Spanish narration. 58 minutes. Produced by Sam Summerlin.
