As the world mourns his loss, tributes pour in from leaders across the globe, recognizing his unwavering dedication to justice and faith. The College of Cardinals will soon convene to elect his successor, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the Catholic Church.  

Pope Francis leaves behind a legacy of courage and compassion, forever shaping the Church and the lives of millions.
