In Blessed Memory of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI

 

Just a few days ago Pope Francis encouraged us all to pray for Pope Emeritus Benedict, as his health condition had worsened - today Pope Francis has announced the death of Pope Benedict. 

 
The modern era of two popes (one emeritus) has ended. Though the two had their differences, clearly Pope Francis enjoyed his time with Pope Benedict.
 
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, may his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, rest in peace. Amen.
 
Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.
