Be Not Afraid - St. John Paul II Crewneck Sweatshirt

Saint John Paul II was and continues to be a testament to Catholic confidence. Spread the courage and live it yourself with this inspiring crewneck design. 

Afterward stating to have been inspired by the Holy Spirit, Pope John Paul II famously proclaimed, "Be not afraid," in his first address as Bishop of Rome. The example of this now beloved Saint speaks to the fortitude a Christian is right to have in this life. This phrase reflects the reality within the gospel, that Christian living will not be easy or comfortable, but there is no cause to fear or despair when you stand with the entire Church Triumphant. Christ has already conquered the world, and He, with all His angels and saints, is who the Christian faces the world with. Take in the message of John Paul the Great's inspired encouragement from that first pontifical address: "So often today man does not know what is within him, in the depths of his mind and heart. So often he is uncertain about the meaning of his life on this earth. He is assailed by doubt, a doubt which turns into despair. We ask you therefore, we beg you with humility and trust, let Christ speak to man. He alone has words of life, yes, of eternal life."
