Pope Francis: A messenger of dialogue, encounter and mercy

“At this time of great sadness as we mourn the loss of our Holy Father, I join with you and all of us at ACN UK in giving thanks for the life, faith and witness of Pope Francis. We pray for the repose of his soul. May he be welcomed into the arms of his loving and merciful Father whom he has served so faithfully.”
Caroline Hull, ACN UK National Director
