The Ohio Council of Churches Mourns the Passing of Pope Francis

The Ohio Council of Churches joins 1.4 billion members of the Roman Catholic Church in mourning the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis. 

While Pope Francis served as the spiritual leader of the Roman Catholic Church, he was respected and honored by Christians of many traditions, people of other faiths, and people of no faiths at all for his commitment to universal human dignity, compassion for the poor, devotion to peace, and enthusiasm for justice.

The Governing Board of the Ohio Council of Churches who represent the Council’s 17 member communions, and the Council’s staff give thanks to God for the vibrant life and impactful witness of His Holiness Pope Francis.  Collectively we offer prayers for each Roman Catholic Diocese in Ohio and for Catholics throughout the world.

With deep respect,

The Reverend Dr. David Long-Higgins
President, the Ohio Council of Churches Governing Board;
Conference Minister, the Heartland Conference of the United Church of Christ
