Nyeri Diocese Catholic Archbishop Anthony Muheria has eulogized the late Pope Francis as a humble servant leader.
In a video message shared on Monday evening from Italy, the archbishop described the late pontiff as a great shepherd and a father who fearlessly championed the life of the marginalized.
Arch Muheria said that the Catholic Church had lost a great leader who, despite assuming office at an advanced age, left an impressive impact on the church by encouraging Christians to open up their hearts and the church to the poor. "We have received the sad news of the passing on to our heavenly father's house of Pope Francis, a beloved pope to many.
The pope who in many ways exemplified simplicity, poverty and ordinariness.
