March 2013. Three days before he was elected as the supreme leader of the global Catholic community, Pope Francis uttered the words. The quote has since become very famous and reflects his humility.

The same quote is now becoming a subject of public conversation once again after a world sad news spread on Monday, 21 April 2025. Pope Francis passed away at the age of 88 after undergoing intensive care in recent weeks. The passing of Pope Francis is a historic moment that leaves sadness, considering his enormous role in bringing the Catholic church to a more inclusive and relevant path in the modern era.

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina as Jorge Mario Bergoglio, Pope Francis is known as a humble figure who is close to many people from all backgrounds. During his leadership, he has encouraged many important changes within the church, including environmental, equality, and humanitarian issues.

One of the most memorable moments for Indonesians was the historic visit of Pope Francis to Jakarta in September 2024, which was also the first visit of a Pope for over 35 years. During his visit, the Pope held a mass prayer service at Gelora Bung Karno, met with interfaith leaders, and delivered a message of peace and unity in diversity.

The body of the late Pope Francis will be transferred to St. Peter’s Basilica on Wednesday at 9:00 AM (local time), where he will be lying in state until the funeral on Saturday morning at 10 AM (local time).
