Pope Francis challenged us to lift up our neighbors with love and compassion, take care of our planet, and look after the least, the last, and the lost among us. The loss of Pope Francis will be felt throughout our city and around the world today—but I know that the DC community will continue to be guided by his words, motivated by his actions, and inspired by his commitment to faith. May we remember his words today and always: "Who am I to judge?"
