There is so much to celebrate about the life of Pope Francis, and therefore also a deep sense of loss at his passing.
He truly set an example of faithfulness to Christ. And how amazing that he has died in the context of Easter with its message of hope for salvation and new life. (1/3)
Wonderful to have a full church this morning. Thank you to everyone who worshipped with us and contributed to all of the services this Holy Week. Happy Easter! @dioceseofedinburgh.bsky.social
