Today we celebrate the birthday of our beloved Pope Saint John Paul II. Pope Saint John Paul II, born Karol Wojtyla was born on May 18, 1920 in Wadowice, Poland. Elected as Holy Father of the Universal Catholic Church on October 16, 1978, became the 264th Pope of the Universal Catholic Church. Cardinal Wojtyla became the first non-Italian Pope in over 400 years and the first Pope of Polish descent. He held the Third longest Pontificate behind St. Peter and Pius IX. He was the first non-Italian pope since Adrian VI in the 16th century.
Pope Saint John Paul II visited Philadelphia, PA, three times: twice before becoming pope (1969 and 1976) and once as the sitting pontiff on October 3–4, 1979. His 1979 trip marked the first official papal visit to the city and featured the largest religious gathering in Philadelphia's history. For more information, you can visit our website: https://polishamericancenter.org/pope.html, https://polishamericancenter.org/Pope_100th.html

Since 1949, the 3rd Saturday of May is observed as National Armed Forces Day in the United States. On this day, National Armed Forces Day we HONOR ,THANK, and SALUTE the roughly 1.34 million men and women currently serving in all six branches of the active-duty military—the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard. This is a day to observe and commend the COURAGE, DETERMINATION, COMMITMENT, STRENGTH and SACRIFICE of all America’s ACTIVE ARMED FORCES without whom we would not have our FREEDOM.

President John F. Kennedy established Armed Forces Day as an official observance in 1962. It has been held on the third Saturday of May every year since.

Everyone is encourage to fly the American flag now through Veterans Day in November. Today we say THANK YOU to everyone fighting to defend this great country, and their families for raising the brave men and women who keep us the STRONGEST NATION ON EARTH!

On May 16, 1983, L**h Wałęsa, leader of the Solidarity trade union movement, was released from internment after nearly eleven months in prison under Poland’s communist government. His detention had followed the crackdown on the Solidarity movement during martial law. Wałęsa’s release came after strong pressure from both the Polish people and the international community, making it a major symbolic victory for the fight for workers’ rights and democracy. He later played a central role in Poland’s peaceful transition away from communism and became President of Poland in 1990.
