The Roman Catholic Diocese of Fall River is reflecting on the passing of Pope Francis.
The Diocese, which covers Southeastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the Islands has posted a message from Bishop Edgar Moreira da Cunha who asks all the faithful to pray for the repose of Pope Francis, whom God has called home to his eternal reward.
The Bishop says Pope Francis leaves a legacy that will remain with the Church and the world for generations to come.
The Bishop says the Pope touched the hearts of countless people with his love, his faith, his humanity and his humility.
