A month after the murder of Mozambican bishop Osório Afonso, who was killed at his home, three bishops from Mozambique met Pope Leo XIV. They reported that the Pope expressed closeness and solidarity with them. The president of the bishops' conference also expressed sorrow that the circumstances of the murder remain unknown. The next step, according to the Mozambican bishops, will be sharing their experience from Rome with all members of the bishops' conference and continuing the search for truth, hope, justice, and purification to heal the wound. The conference president emphasized that Bishop Osório was murdered because he loved life. He added that being a martyr of faith and the Church being a strong church, this event has caused immense pain but also great hope, as persecution strengthens the Church.
