The owner of an escort agency in the small town of Poronin in southern Poland is closing down his business out of respect for Pope John Paul II , who died on April 2. "I'm closing down my business with the girls; I'm doing it for the one at the top, for John Paul II," Gazeta Wyborcza daily quoted Jozef Galica as saying.

"Money is not everything. Something cracked inside me. I lost my way in life," he said. Mr Galica said he would from now on take communion and confess to his Poronin parish priest, Franiszek Juchas, who confirmed that the businessman had assured him he would shut up shop. John Paul II was born at Wadowice, which is located 70km from Poronin.
