Der F\u00f6rderverein Point Alpha hatte im November 2015 das erste \u00fcberlebensgro\u00dfe Denkmal f\u00fcr Papst Johannes Paul II. in Deutschland auf dem Schlossplatz in Geisa eingeweiht. Die Statue schuf seinerzeit der Schlitzer Bildhauer Ulrich Barnickel im Auftrag des Vereins. Allj\u00e4hrlich findet seitdem ein Dankgottesdienst in der Stadtpfarrkirche f\u00fcr den inzwischen heiliggesprochenen Papst statt, um an dessen Verdienste zur Wiedererlangung der Freiheit in der DDR und anderen Ostblock-L\u00e4ndern zu erinnern. In diesem Jahr fand der Gottesdienst zwei\u00a0Tage nach dem 22. Oktober, dem Gedenktag Johannes Paul\u00a0II., statt: Am Freitagabend\u00a0zelebrierte ihn\u00a0Geisas Stadtpfarrer Martin Lerg.<\/p>\n

Pfarrer Lerg nennt den Papst stets \u201eJohannes Paul den Gro\u00dfen\u201c, weil er in der Zeit seines Pontifikats Gro\u00dfes vollbracht habe. \u201eEr hatte viele Menschen selig und heilig gesprochen. Nun ist er einer von ihnen\u201c, sagte er.\u00a0 36 Jahre sei es\u00a0her, dass am 9. November 1989\u00a0\u00a0 \u00fcberraschend die \u00d6ffnung der Grenze verk\u00fcndet wurde \u2013 aufgrund einer Kommunikationspanne. Als gl\u00e4ubiger Mensch schlie\u00dfe er\u00a0aber\u00a0 nicht aus, \u201edass einer nachgeholfen hat\u201c.<\/p>\n

Johannes Paul II. hatte viele L\u00e4nder bereist, darunter auch seine Heimat Polen. \u201eDas B\u00fcndnis im Osten trug den Namen der Hauptstadt dieses Landes, und wir in Geisa waren die westlichste Stadt des Warschauer Pakts\u201c, so Martin Lerg.\u00a0 Bei seinen Besuchen in anderen L\u00e4ndern hatte der Papst eine Geste eingef\u00fchrt: Er k\u00fcsste stets den Boden des Landes und begr\u00fc\u00dfte Vertreter\u00a0aus Kirche, Gesellschaft\u00a0und Politik, aber auch ganz viele einfache Menschen, gab ihnen die Hand.<\/p>\n

\u201eWas hat sein Pontifikat besonders gepr\u00e4gt?\u201c, fragte Martin Lerg.\u00a0 F\u00fcr Johannes Paul II. hatten die Person\u00a0und das Pers\u00f6nliche stets im Mittelpunkt gestanden, was bewirkte, dass er so viele Menschen mitrei\u00dfen und\u00a0 auf diese Weise die Welt ver\u00e4ndern konnte \u2013 nicht durch Programme, nicht durch Ideen, nicht durch Ideologie, sondern eben als Pers\u00f6nlichkeit, der es um die Menschen ging.\u00a0 Die Botschaft \u201eF\u00fcrchte Dich nicht\u201c sei gerade\u00a0in unseren Tagen besonders notwendig. Diese Botschaft habe Johannes Paul nicht nur verk\u00fcndet, sondern auch gelebt und damit viele Menschen mitgerissen.<\/p>\n

Nach dem Gottesdienst traf man sich zu einer Statio vor der Papst-Skulptur auf dem Schlossplatz. \u201eMan k\u00f6nnte denken, wenn es Textilien w\u00e4ren, dass der Sturm sie geformt hat\u201c, sagte Pfarrer Lerg. Papst Johannes Paul II. sei nicht unumstritten gewesen, viel Wind habe ihm entgegen geblasen, so sei das auch in dieser Statur zu sehen.\u00a0 \u00a0Stefan Sachs<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
