Pope Francis passed away at age 88 following a battle with double pneumonia, confirmed by Cardinal Kevin Ferrell. His death occurred a day after Easter, highlighting a significant moment for the Catholic Church. Known for his commitment to the Gospel's values and addressing issues for marginalized communities, Francis had spent 38 days hospitalized prior to his death. The conclave for electing the next pope will commence in the upcoming weeks, marking a pivotal time for the Church as it remembers his contributions.
With deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and of his Church.
He taught us to live the values of the Gospel with faithfulness, courage, and universal love, especially for the poorest and most marginalized.
