Saint Peter Church joins with the Church throughout the world in mourning the loss of our beloved Pope Francis.
“When the thought of death lies heavy on our hearts, when we see the dark shadows of evil advancing in our world, when we feel the wounds of selfishness or violence festering in our flesh and in our society, let us not lose heart, but return to the message of this night. The light quietly shines forth, even though we are in darkness; the promise of new life and a world finally set free awaits us; and a new beginning, however impossible it might seem, can take us by surprise, for Christ has triumphed over death.”
– Pope Francis, Easter Vigil, Holy Saturday, April 19, 2025.
