00:00Pope Francis has left several legacies for several generations and for many layers of society.
00:05Beyond his always rigorous spiritual path, he knew how to be a man who assumed the time he had to live,
00:12and one of defending the people.
00:14Our colleague Fabian Restivo brings us the details. Let's see more.
00:21Thousands of faithful concurred today at the Metropolitan Cathedral of the capital of the country,
00:26where Archbishop Garcia Corvus gave the last Mass for Pope Francis.
00:31In that Mass, he gave a great message of spiritual hope,
00:34but in line with Pope Francis, he also gave a political message.
00:41To look, to be attentive, not to overlook the poorest, the most discarded, the most broken, the driest.
00:51All this was Francis' message, which was to feel and live as brothers.
00:56Let us not forget that if anyone put women in the Vatican,
01:03it was precisely Pope Francis in a clear political example.
01:11Jesus lived with the poorest.
01:14In his time, he threw the most powerful out of the church
01:17when they wanted to take the poor out of his temple.
01:19So it seems to me that this is like taking up the message that Jesus is like Pope Francis,
01:23and in our country, most of the people are poor.
01:30The message was in tune with Francis and his lifelong direct connection
01:34with the priests of the Church of the Option for the poor.
01:37That's why he insisted on organizing, work, fight for land, roof, work,
01:48because that is what every child of God deserves, every human being.
01:53And from there, from that of, that love that comes from God,
01:57he moved all that and taught it to all of us,
02:00leading us to work on that beautiful legacy.
02:02The people, the workers, those people who followed him beyond their beliefs,
02:15also had an emotional message for Francis.
02:17He tells us, for example, to jump over the walls and go to meet the people.
02:30It is a political message with an enormous spirituality.
02:33He also speaks to the powerful of the world,
02:36and he also speaks to the vernacular powerful.
02:39The truth is that Francis' legacy is this.
