(2 June 2005 - RV) Pope John Paul II is providing inspiration for stressed-out exam
students in Ireland with his words “Be not afraid” displayed on fashionable brightly-coloured

when sixteen year-old Daniel Bowman – the boy whose idea it was to put the slogan
on the wrist band - phoned him about it.
