Upon leaving Bulgaria on May 26, His Holiness John Paul II sent a telegram to Bulgaria’s President Georgi Parvanov. “Please, accept my gratitude for the hospitality in your country where I had times of high spiritual joy from my contact with the Bulgarian church. In the telegram, the Pope expressed his personal gratitude to “God for the liturgies and the warmness of the meetings with the people, especially with the Christian communities, the memory of which I will keep forever.” “Wishing farewell to your dear country, I call God to help you and the entire people,” the Papal telegram to Bulgaria's President Georgi Parvanov concludes. "I have never believed in the so-called Bulgarian connection in the attempt on my life in 1981," was one of the Pope's most important statements during his visit, the first ever of a Pope in Bulgaria.
