Poland's Roman Catholic church plans to build a center devoted to interfaith dialogue in honor of late Pope John Paul II at the site in southern Poland where he toiled during the Nazi occupation of his country, a church official said Friday.

The center is to be named "Be Not Afraid" after one of the Polish-born pontiff's best-known mottos.

Robert Necek, spokesman for the Krakow Archbishop Stanislaw Dziwisz.
