Basilians Mourn the Passing of Pope Francis
April 24, 2025
With deep sorrow and abiding love, the Basilian community mourns the passing of our Holy Father. Our long history of fidelity to the papacy empowers us in prayer as we entrust his soul to the mercy of God.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. Amen.
