John Paul II - First Pilgrimage to the Motherland - Nowy Targ, June 8, 1979
Homily - Part 1



Praised be Jesus Christ!

"From the Baltic to the top of the mountains...the Tatra mountains". From these words, he began his greetings, my successor on the throne of St. Stanislaw of Krakow. I thank's for this greeting, and with him, I greet all that are gathered here, especially our distinguished guests..... .
My dear, in my pilgrimage to Poland, I have been given the privilege to come to the mountains. Specifically, to these Tatry Mountains which for centuries have formed the Polish border in the South. This border has always been the most closed, and the best protected; we don't conduct wars here. However, this border has always be the most open and friendly. Through this borders were roads to neighbors, to kin. Even during the last occupation, this road was the most experienced sawn for refugees, who traveled this way to the South to consequently join the Polish Army that fought for freedom of the homeland, and for the freedom of those abroad.
So, I would like to welcome of our kinsmen from the South. This open and friendly border, not only friendly and open from our side, but also from theirs, should grant that they be present with us here today. But, if they aren't here, then you will surely tell them when they come, that we remembered them here today. That I remembered them......And that we prayed for them, because they are dear to us!
I would also like to specifically and heartfully welcome those, with whom I have always had such strong ties, those who came here today from Podhale and sub-Carpatian region, and those who live in the mountains, and all those who live at the foot of the mountains.
