The President of the Methodist Church in Ireland extends his sympathy on news of the death of His Holiness Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.
“Pope Benedict had a profound influence on the life of the Church. His life was deeply rooted in God, and in his teaching he encouraged all to a closer relationship with Jesus in their everyday lives. He was a man of prayer and an insightful theologian. We pray for comfort for all who mourn his loss”
