Dio Palm BeachPOPE FRANCIS | FUNERAL LIVE FEED
Cardinal Reina spoke of how the Pope was a man who did not flinch in the face of suffering, who dared to get “muddy” in his pursuit of justice and peace.
“He was a Pope who did not change course when it meant getting dirty, and he loved to repeat that the only time it’s acceptable to look down on someone is when helping them up from the ground,” he said.
‘Turn your mourning into mission’
The cardinal invited the congregation to turn their mourning into mission: “We are asked not to cling to him, as Mary Magdalene was asked—not to remain within his death, but to let him go as he returns to the Father.”
“In the mystery of God’s timing,” he added, “we have just celebrated Easter, and we are now struck by the death of our Bishop. But the promise of sharing in the Resurrection sustains our faith, enables us to hope, and consoles us in our grief.”
