Pax Christi USA mourns the loss of Pope John Paul II, one of the greatest voices for peace and reconciliation of our time. In this Easter season, Pax Christi USA remembers and honors Pope John Paul II as an ambassador for peace and justice, and a voice that cried out for a culture of life - a culture that denounced war and militarism, that valued the dignity of the human person, and valued the sanctity of all God's creation.
