With great sadness, we at Saint Gregory the Great mourn the passing of our Holy Father Pope Francis along with the rest of the Catholic Church and indeed the world. 

Pope Francis lead the pilgrim Church for 12 years with love, compassion, and hope demonstrated in the way he lived.  He called each one of us to persevere, take up our own cross, and follow Jesus.

Speaking about the difficulties of a Gospel life today with hope for tomorrow, Pope Francis was quoted as saying, 

“If one day you are overcome by fears and worries, think of that episode in the Gospel of John, at the marriage at Cana (John 2:1– 12), and say to yourselves: The best wine has yet to be served.”

Hope: The Autobiography

Let us remember Pope Francis and pray that the tireless efforts of Pope Francis, now called to the Lord, may bear fruit in unity, peace, and love among all men and women.
