Thank you Pope Francis for showing us the way of mercy and for leading us by true humbleness of heart. May you find that mercy yoyu showed us all, and in the fathers house be an intercessor for all those on the margins especially refugess, immignats and the little ones of life, may we follow your inspiration by caring for them, for our little home this Earth, for l,iving creatures and for creation
It was a privilege to meet Pope Francis even for such a brief moment. A man of true peace and humility and with a special vision for the Universal Church. Requiescat in pace.
Thank you for your ministry and for all you have worked so hard to do to build our Church Mission. Your message of love, hope, mercy, forgiveness and humility has given us an example to follow and to share across all communities.
When Pope Francis was elected Head of the Catholic Church, he stepped out onto the balcony of St Peter’s Basilica and humbly asked all the faithful watching — both in person and online — as well as millions of people of other faiths and none at all, to “pregate su di me” — “pray over me.” To me, this is the greatest tribute to Francis: at the most significant moment of his life, before he offered his blessing to the world, he asked for our prayers.
He was an exceptional Pope and an even lovelier human being. Though he led the Catholic Church, he served the whole world. He didn’t see people by colour, height, nationality, or status — he saw everyone simply as human beings. And that is what I will always remember him for.
“Let us learn to live with kindness, to love everyone, even when they do not love us.” — Pope Francis
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace. Amen.
A man of huge humility, kindness, self sacrifice and vision - his life was a testament to what it means to follow Christ. A huge loss to the whole of humanity. Pope Francis we will miss you - pray for us!
