Papa Francescu

The passing of Pope Francis reminds me that just a few months ago he made the first ever papal visit to Corsica where he was warmly welcomed by cheering crowds - it was just a couple of days before his 88th birthday. He led an outdoor mass in Ajaccio at La Place d’Austerlitz.  Corsica is particularly devout with around 90% of the population of the catholic faith. It was reported that Papa Francescu was particularly taken by how many children came out to see him and responded with , “Make more children. They will be your joy and consolation in the future”
Rest in peace Papa Francescu.
