It is with deep sorrow and reverence that we acknowledge the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis, a humble servant of Christ whose life and ministry touched the world.
On behalf of The International Christian Church Network, I extend our heartfelt condolences to the global Catholic community and to all who have been impacted by the life, love, and leadership of Pope Francis. His unwavering commitment to compassion, reconciliation, and service reflected the heart of Jesus in a world that so desperately needed it.
We will never forget the generosity and kindness he extended to several of our ministers, welcoming us at various times within the sacred halls of the Vatican. His hospitality, humility, and willingness to listen were not only deeply appreciated but profoundly moving. He was open to our message of the power of faith, and for that we are eternally grateful.
Pope Francis stood as a bridge between peoples, denominations, and nations. His legacy is one of grace, inclusion, and a courageous love for the poor, the marginalized, and the broken-hearted.
May he rest in the peace of Christ, and may his example continue to inspire all of us who labour for the unity of the Body of Christ and the advancement of the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
