Born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, he served as the 266th pope of the Roman Catholic Church. His life was a testament to faith, humility, and unwavering compassion for humanity.

Pope Francis was widely recognized for his dedication to social justice, interfaith dialogue, and care for the poor and marginalized.  We honor his enduring legacy and pray for peace and comfort as we mourn his loss. May his spirit continue to inspire us to live with grace, justice, and love.
