Nine Days that Changed the World Pope John Paul II's historic nine-day pilgrimage.

Two months before the outbreak of World War II, he attended a military training camp in eastern Poland. Karol Wojtyla would later come to be known as Pope John Paul II.
Pope John Paul II's historic nine-day pilgrimage to Poland in June of 1979 created a revolution of conscience that transformed Poland and fundamentally reshaped the spiritual and political landscape of the 20th Century.
Newt and Callista Gingrich, along with a Polish, American, and Italian cast, explore what transpired during these nine days that moved the Polish people to renew their hearts, reclaim their courage, and free themselves from the shackles of Communism.
