With deep respect and heartfelt condolences, The Wake Forest University School of Divinity community joins the Church and the world in mourning the passing of Pope Francis.
A voice of conscience in our time, Pope Francis led with compassion, courage, and clarity—calling communities of faith toward justice, peace, and solidarity with the most vulnerable. His witness reached beyond borders and traditions, inviting all people into deeper reflection and shared responsibility.
We offer our prayers and gratitude for his life and ministry to inspire lives of faithful service.

On this Easter morning, we stand in awe of the mystery: that God, in a love supreme, gave the Son for the life of the world. Jesus, crucified and risen, reveals a love that bears our suffering, breaks the power of sin, and conquers death with life. This is the heart of Easter. This is the victory we proclaim.
From all of us at Wake Forest University School of Divinity, may the power of resurrection awaken hope, courage, and joy in you today.

✨ Light Returns. Hope Rises. Love Prevails.
In a world longing for healing, justice, and connection, the Easter Vigil invites us to pause — to breathe in the mystery of resurrection and remember that even in the darkest night, a new dawn always comes.
Join the Wake Forest University community for a powerful evening of sacred storytelling, candlelight, and communal hope at our Easter Vigil Service — a celebration that transcends tradition and speaks directly to the heart of today’s world.
Together, we will move from shadows to light, from lament to joy, from despair to a defiant, radiant hope.
