Gaza's Christian community is mourning the death of Pope Francis, who had been a consistent source of encouragement and hope for them during the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. Since October 2023, he regularly reached out via video calls, offering prayers and solidifying their faith amidst devastation. The community expressed deep gratitude for his blessings, stating his words gave them life and hope, and without him, they feel a significant loss. The Pope's consistent calls for peace and justice made a meaningful impact in a region stricken by turmoil and suffering.
Every day, he renewed our hope for an end to the war and the bloodshed. His prayers will remain with us for peace in the land of peace, Palestine.
Though the Vatican is far away, his voice always reached our hearts; he never ceased calling for peace and justice.
