“The experiences of Pope Francis in Argentina have helped him a lot to help the Church to move forward in the current times, especially the current issues that arise in the society. As a woman, I feel that he has done a lot to bring women to the forefront of the church, especially to administrative and leadership levels. And also he has a lot of sympathy for the migrants and those in the peripheries of the society. So he has definitely done a lot to bring those in the peripheries to the forefront, especially the suffering. And he has also prayed and intervened to bring peace, especially in time of war in Ukraine and Israel. Thus I think he was a good shepherd, very much concerned about bringing peace and the kingdom of God here on earth.”

STORYLINE:
The Vatican on Monday said Pope Francis is resting after a quiet night at the Gemelli Hospital in Rome.
Monday is the 10th day of his hospitalization for a complex lung infection that has provoked the early stages of kidney insufficiency.
The one-line statement didn’t say if Francis, 88, had woken up.
“The night passed well, the pope slept and is resting,” it said.
Late Sunday, doctors reported that blood tests showed early kidney failure that was nevertheless under control.
They said Francis remained in critical condition but that he hadn’t experienced any further respiratory crises since Saturday.
