Abstract:	"Let us make a human in our image, by our likeness" — the affirmation of Genesis concerning "humankind": Saint Pope John Paul II: priest of the Catholic Church in Poland, bishop, Pope, and declared a saint by the Catholic Church; Chiara Lubich: Italian Catholic laywoman and foundress of the Opera di Maria, the Focolare Movement, whose Cause for Beatification was initiated in 2014: from these three sources — Scripture text, Magisterium, and Catholic lay spirituality — we aim to glean the particular geniuses within the masculinity and femininity of humankind.
