Meditation on the Death of Pope Francis

 “Well done, good and faithful servant… enter into the joy of your master.” (Matthew 25:21)

Today, the Church mourns the passing of Pope Francis, a humble servant of God who lived a life marked by selfless love, a deep commitment to the poor, and a fierce dedication to proclaiming the Gospel of Christ. 

His death marks the end of a papacy that transformed the hearts of millions and left an indelible mark on the Catholic Church. 

As we reflect on his life and death, we turn to the words of Sacred Scripture for comfort, remembering that he now enters into the eternal joy promised to all who faithfully follow Christ.
