It's a holiday in much of the world and it will be one of mourning for many as Pope Francis died today.
The 88-year old born in Argentina as Jorge Mario Bergoglio passed away. He leaves behind a profound legacy marked by compassion, humility, and progressive leadership within the Catholic Church, which he rose to lead in 2013.
His papacy was characterized by a deep commitment to the poor and marginalized, exemplified through personal acts of humility and his calls for a Church grounded in mercy and openness rather than judgment.
His final two messages were for hope and peace.
