World leaders, religious figures, and ordinary people have begun to pay tribute:
“Pope Francis was a moral compass in a time of confusion and division,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres.
“His heart was with the poor and the planet. He will be remembered not only as a spiritual leader, but as a global conscience,” said President Lula da Silva of Brazil.
The Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmed el-Tayeb, also expressed his deep sorrow, calling the Pope “a partner in dialogue and peace.”
Candles, flowers, and prayers have flooded St. Peter’s Square, as thousands gather to honor his memory.
What Happens Next?
With the Pope’s passing, the College of Cardinals will now begin preparations for a conclave—a secret election held in the Sistine Chapel to choose the next pope. No date has been set yet, but the Vatican is expected to release the funeral plans and conclave timeline in the coming days.
In the interim, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, will assume limited administrative responsibilities.
Final Words
Pope Francis leaves behind a legacy that reshaped the global image of the Catholic Church. A humble shepherd who walked with his flock, he used his voice to advocate for justice, unity, and peace. His death marks the end of an era—but his vision will live on in the hearts of millions.
