Francis's popemobile to become a mobile clinic for children in Gaza

Just over a decade ago, the converted Mitsubishi whisked Pope Francis through the streets of Bethlehem before it was left to gather dust. Now, in keeping with one of the late pontiff’s last wishes, the popemobile is being given a second life – as a mobile health clinic for children in the Gaza Strip.

Pope Francis' example of caring for the sick and destitute hasn't been hampered by his own death.
I am not Catholic, nor even a Christian, but I am in awe of the man's selfless humanity.
