“Man of God and man of the Church, characterised by a deep faith and great firmness of doctrine, that always defended without hesitations and with bravery. Worried only to be loyal to Jesus Christ.

“(His) great legacy was his testimony for the Christian faith, the hope also in this time when he suffered innocently in the prison and he gave us a three volumes of his experiences. His isolation for 23 hours every day in the prison and he was a great witness for the hope Jesus gave us also in our Cross, when we are savoring our Cross, and he believed also surely in the resurrection and now it is almost better for him, now he is in full redemption."

STORYLINE:
The Australian cardinal who decried the papacy of Pope Francis as a “catastrophe” was given a funeral Saturday and hailed by some fellow churchmen at St. Peter's Basilica, with the pontiff imparting a final blessing for the once high-ranking Vatican prelate.

Cardinal George Pell, 81, died on Jan. 10, shortly after undergoing hip surgery in a Rome hospital.

As the Vatican’s finance minister for three years, Pell had been a key player in the early years of Francis’ papacy, whose goals included reforming the Holy See's finances, which had a long history of scandals and poor management.

Pell later returned to his native Australia to be tried on child sex abuse charges over allegations that he molested two choirboys while he was archbishop of Melbourne.

He served more than a year in solitary confinement in prison before an earlier court conviction was overturned in 2020.

Pell had steadfastly proclaimed his innocence.

As is customary for funerals of cardinals, a final blessing, delivered in Latin, in the form of a prayer for mercy and eternal rest, was recited by Francis, who, in a wheelchair, passed by Pell's plain wooden coffin.
