Statement of Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, archbishop of Chicago, on the death of Pope Benedict XVI
 
We join Pope Francis and Catholics across the world in mourning the death of Pope Benedict XVI who has gone home to the God he served faithfully.
 
Throughout his life as a scholar and as a churchman, he showed us what it means to fulfill the ancient command to love God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind. As the last pope who attended the Second Vatican Council, he has served as a bridge to the future, reminding us all that the reform and renewal of the Church is ongoing. Resigning in 2013, the Year of Faith, Pope Benedict XVI taught us that belief in God means completely placing our trust in Divine Providence. Today we pray as Pope Francis did earlier this year, “May St. Joseph help us to live the mystery of death in the best possible way. For a Christian, the good death is an experience of the mercy of God, who comes close to us even in that last moment of our life.”
 
Lord, let your perpetual light shine on your servant Joseph Ratzinger, Pope Benedict XVI, and may he rest in peace.

Declaración del Cardenal Blase J. Cupich, arzobispo de Chicago, sobre la muerte del Papa Benedicto XVI

Nos unimos al Papa Francisco y a los católicos de todo el mundo en el duelo por la muerte del Papa Benedicto XVI, quien se ha ido a casa con el Dios al que sirvió fielmente.

A lo largo de su vida como erudito y eclesiástico, nos mostró lo que significa cumplir el antiguo mandamiento de amar a Dios con todo el corazón, con toda el alma y con toda la mente. Como el último Papa que asistió al Concilio Vaticano II, ha servido como puente hacia el futuro, recordándonos a todos que la reforma y renovación de la Iglesia está en curso. Al renunciar en 2013, el Año de la Fe, el Papa Benedicto XVI nos enseñó que creer en Dios significa depositar completamente nuestra confianza en la Divina Providencia. Hoy oramos como lo hizo el Papa Francisco a principios de este año: “Que San José nos ayude a vivir el misterio de la muerte de la mejor manera posible. Para un cristiano, la buena muerte es una experiencia de la misericordia de Dios, que se acerca a nosotros también en ese último momento de nuestra vida”.

Señor, haz que tu luz perpetua brille sobre tu servidor Joseph Ratzinger, el Papa Benedicto XVI, y que en paz descanse.
