"Well done, my good and faithful servant... Come, share your Master's joy" Matthew 25:21
We, The Tindig Kabataan, deeply mourns the untimely demise of our Holy Father Francis I. The Holy Father passed away, today April 27 at 7:35 AM at his Residence in the Vatican’s Casa Santa Marta at the age of 88 (Vatican News).
The youths have always been dearest to our Holy Father; urging them to dream big and promote a culture of care by becoming “champions of fraternity” (UN International Youth Day: Vatican News).
He also emphasized a key for young people to live a life that’s fuller by allowing themselves to be guided by God and accepting the advice of good counsellors.
“Dear young people, never lose your courage to dream big and to live life completely! Adopt the culture of care and spread it. Become champions of fraternity. Face life’s challenges by letting yourselves be guided by God and by good counsellors. ” (Pope’s Tweet: Vatican News).
Let us pray for the eternal repose of Pope Francis I.
Prayer for a Deceased Pope (from the Roman Missal)
God, Who, in Thine ineffable providence, didst will that Thy servant Jorge Mario Bergoglio (Pope Francis) should be numbered among the high priests, grant, we beseech Thee, that he, who on earth held the place of Thine only-begotten Son, may be joined forevermore to the fellowship of Thy holy pontiffs. Through the same Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. Amen.
May choirs of angels welcome you and lead you to the bosom of Abraham; and where Lazarus is poor no longer may you find eternal rest.
Dios Mabalos Lolo Kiko, asin paaram. Viaje con Dios!
Francis I
1936-2025
