Pope Francis mourned: The Bishop of Wilcannia-Forbes says the late Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday, helped influence his approach as a religious leader in western New South Wales. The Diocese of Wilcannia-Forbes, which has existed in some form since 1887, covers more than 400,000 square kilometres and is the largest in the state. Bishop Columba MacBeth-Green, who was
appointed to his position by Pope Francis in 2014 and met him a few times, says he remembers him as a "simple but profound" man who brought the papacy closer to people. Meanwhile, the dean of Broken Hill's Sacred Heart Cathedral Father Vincent says he's praying with the rest of the local Catholic community for the pope and whoever will be his successor.
