Today, April 21, 2025, His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros of America offered the following message via social media: “The joy of Pascha is tinged with a note of sadness today, as we learn of the repose in the Lord of Pope Francis. In a world of increasing animosity, conflict and hate, Pope Francis was a towering figure of compassion, empathy and love. Memory Eternal, Requiescat in Pace.”
