The passing of Pope Francis prompted global tributes, highlighting his profound influence on compassion, humility, and environmental stewardship. Archbishop Cordileone encouraged living out Francis' legacy through action, while Bishop Cantu praised him for his commitment to the poor and marginalized. Gov. Gavin Newsom emphasized Francisâ message of interconnectedness among all humanity and responsibility towards creation. Nancy Pelosi reflected on his dedication to the least fortunate, and Tim Cook acknowledged the worldwide mourning for a leader whose teachings resonated deeply. His commitment to addressing the climate crisis through his encyclical Laudato Si was also emphasized, marking a significant aspect of his papacy.
Pope Francis called on us all to give more, sacrifice more, and care more about the poorest and most vulnerable, from the tiny infant in the womb, to the elderly and infirm, to the migrant and the refugee.
He referred to the Church as a field hospital, reaching out to the peripheries, and encouraged us all to encounter each other, especially the poor.
His Holiness Pope Francis personified our sacred responsibility in the Gospel of Matthew to honor the spark of divinity in the least of our brethren.
In his groundbreaking encyclical, Laudato Si, Pope Francis writes with beauty and clarity, with moral force and fierce urgency to call on all of us to be good stewards of God's Creation.
