There's word from the Vatican this morning.
Pope Francis has died at his residence at the age of 88.
The Pope's death comes one day after Christians celebrated Easter Sunday around the world.
NPR Sylvia Pugli reports Francis was the first non-European Pope in about a thousand years.
Jorge Maria Bergoglio was born in Buenos Aires, the son of Italian immigrants.
He was the first Jesuit to become Pope,
the first to take the name of St. Francis of Assisi and the first Pope from the Global South.
Francis was beloved for his common touch and his vision of a merciful and inclusive church.
He described it as a field hospital after battle,
healing the wounds of the faithful and going out to find those who have been hurt,
excluded or fallen away.
A firm believer in the need to save the planet,
Francis was not afraid to criticize Western societies for what he called their unfettered pursuit of money.
