On the morning of Pope Francis’s funeral, our Director Christine Allen spoke to CNN about his legacy.

She reflected on two powerful moments:
💚 The publication of Laudato Si’, his landmark encyclical on care for our common home.
🕊️ The moment he kissed the feet of South Sudan’s warring leaders, urging them to choose peace.

[CAFOD @CAFOD]

Eternal rest grant unto Pope Francis. You have been the voice of the voiceless, the champion of the poor.

May perpetual light shine upon you, just as you have shone on this world.
