Pope Francis consistently placed the suffering and the pursuit of peace at the center of his mission. Even in the face of personal hardship, his dedication to ending violence never wavered.

In the final weeks of his life, while hospitalized with bilateral pneumonia, he still found the strength to connect with the Holy Family parish in Gaza via video call—a community he remained closely engaged with throughout the ongoing conflict in the region.

In this Jubilee Year of Hope, the legacy of Pope Francis endures through his heartfelt appeals for peace, his unwavering compassion, and his belief that true peace demands justice, dialogue, and shared humanity. His was not merely a plea for silence in war, but a call for unity in dignity—a world built for all, where abundance never turns its back on need.
