Pope Francis, the revered Jesuit pontiff and leader of over a billion Catholics, passed away from a stroke at age 88 on Easter Monday. Known as the 'People's Pope,' he was recognized for his compassion, especially towards marginalized communities, including migrants and the LGBTQ community. His legacy includes a call for deeper reflection among clergy. Tributes from priests emphasize his remarkable impact on the Church, particularly his revolutionary approach to inclusivity. His body will lie in state for public mourning prior to his burial on Saturday.
Francis gave the world and the Church what it needed, Christian leadership, faith-inspired prophetic commentary and deep compassion for the marginalised.
He became a bit revolutionary, asking priests to give blessings to same sex couples.
