A memorial mass will be held at the Church of St. Francis in the Abrahamic Family House on Sa'adiyat Island, Abu Dhabi, on April 24 for the passing of Pope Francis, the Apostolic Vicariate of Southern Arabia (Avosa) announced on Tuesday.
The mass at 7pm will be officiated by Archbishop Christophe El-Kassis, Apostolic Nuncio to the UAE, and concelebrated by Bishop Paolo Martinelli OFM Cap., Apostolic Vicar of Southern Arabia.
"Besides the faithful of our church, we are expecting the participation of representatives from different diplomatic missions," Avosa said on its Facebook post, adding: "Let us join together in praying for the eternal repose of the soul of Pope Francis, beloved to us all."
