The tragedies and struggles of his life were unbelievable. He lost his entire family during the war. When he heard his father breathe his last, he decided to dedicated his life to God. He studied for the priesthood in secret (penalty under the Nazis: summary execution), practiced as the Soviets tried to stamp out Catholicism in Poland; and accepted the See of Krakow, placing him in direct conflict with the communist regime; and that was all before becoming Pope!
