La sorella Geneviève, una servitore per tutta la vita degli emarginati, è stata una delle pochissime rare autorizzazioni di attraversare le barriere del Vaticano e offrire un ultimo addio a Papa Francesco.

Sister Geneviève Jeanningros, a French-Argentine nun from the Little Sisters of Jesus, became widely known recently because during the funeral events for Pope Francis she — despite strict Vatican protocols — was allowed to personally approach his coffin and say a private, emotional farewell. This was an unusual gesture because normally, such close access is highly restricted, even for clergy. It shows how deeply Pope Francis valued her friendship and her lifelong work with marginalized communities like circus workers, Roma people, and transgender individuals in Italy.

True honor for pope
