13 MAY 1981: THE DAY THE ATTACK ON JOHN PAUL II SHOCKED THE WORLD

Vatican News

45 years from the attack on Saint John Paul II during a General Audience in St Peter’s Square, the memory of the event continues to be linked to themes of prayer, forgiveness, and trust in God reflected in the words of the Pope and his successors.

Forty-five years have passed since the attack on Pope John Paul II in Saint Peter’s Square on 13 May 1981, an event that marked the history of the Church and dramatically drew the attention of the international community.

The memory of that day remains linked not only to the images from Saint Peter’s Square, but also to the words of prayer, forgiveness, and trust in God pronounced in the years that followed by the Pope and his successors.

In May 1981, the international socio-political context was marked by renewed tensions between East and West. The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan had intensified the Cold War climate, while concern was growing in Eastern Europe over the emergence of the independent trade union Solidarność in Poland. In Italy, years of terrorism and extremist political violence known as the Anni di Piombo – Years of Lead – rocked society to the core.

On Wednesday, 13 May 1981, Saint Peter’s Square was filled with pilgrims gathered for the weekly General Audience. Pope John Paul II was greeting the faithful from the white jeep traditionally used to circle the square when shots were fired at close range. The Pope was seriously wounded and immediately transported to Rome’s Gemelli Hospital.

Among those reporting on the event live was Vatican Radio journalist Benedetto Nardacci, whose voice conveyed the confusion and silence that followed the attack.

Observing the crowd in the square, he described people standing in silence and waiting for news, while bishops and clergy invited the faithful to pray for the Pope’s recovery.

A statement released by the Holy See Press Office later confirmed that the Pope had been struck in the

Our Lady of Fatima, the Blessed Mother of God and Queen of the Holy Rosary, appeared to three young shepherds in Portugal with a message of prayer, penance, conversion, and peace. With motherly love, she called all humanity to return to God, to pray the Rosary daily for the conversion of sinners and for peace in the world, and to offer sacrifices in reparation for sins against Her Immaculate Heart. She revealed that God wishes to establish devotion to Her Immaculate Heart as a path of salvation, refuge in danger, and sure way to Heaven. Her gentle presence and heavenly messages remind us that Mary is our loving Mother, ever interceding for us, guiding us toward Her Son Jesus, and leading us away from all harm and error.

She teaches us the power of humble prayer, the strength of self‑offering, and the victory of trust in God’s plan. She inspires us to pray always, to do penance for our sins, and to live lives of purity, charity, and faith. She reminds us that through the Holy Rosary, we can obtain every grace and blessing we need, and that Her Immaculate Heart will triumph in the end, bringing peace and salvation to all nations.
