Victory in Europe 1945. It is hard for those of us born after the war to imagine the Second World War. Films and the Victor comic of childhood days and even History books cannot and could not give a true picture of a nation at war.
It is also hard to imagine that the continent of Europe should have witnessed the evils of Nazism. There was a time when Europe was known as Christendom. Nazism was a symptom of what a total rejection of God leads to: the degradation of humanity.
It is the role of the Church to constantly raise the minds and hearts of mankind to the Love of God and the dignity of each and every human person.
May the continent of Europe reject all forms of evil and build a civilisation of Love.
