We join our prayers with people of faith and goodwill around the world as we mourn the death of Pope Francis. As a Catholic association, we are grateful for his example of faith, hope, joy and Gospel service. We remember his leadership in inspiring women and men to care, anew, for all of humanity, the marginalized, and our common home. Today, we echo his words in our hearts: “With Christ joy is constantly born anew.” May the Risen Lord grant unto him eternal rest.
Paz (Peace)
