It is with deep sadness that we mourn the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis on April 21, 2025.

Pope Francis was a kind and humble leader who inspired millions around the world with his message of love, compassion, and care for all creation. Through his words and actions, he reminded us of the importance of mercy, justice, and inclusion, and he encouraged us to walk gently with one another in faith.

To honour his life and legacy, all Kenora Catholic District School Board schools and buildings will lower their flags to half-mast until sunset on Monday, April 28.

We invite you to join us in prayer as we give thanks for Pope Francis' life of service and leadership:



In loving Memory of Pope Francis



Loving God,

We thank You for the gift of Pope Francis —
a shepherd who walked gently, loved deeply,
and reminded us always of Your mercy and joy.

In his words and witness,
he called us to care for creation,
to uplift the poor,
and to live with compassion and grace.

May his legacy live on in acts of kindness,
in hearts turned toward justice,
and in a Church ever more open and loving.

Welcome him into Your eternal embrace,
where peace is complete and love never ends.

Amen.
