Pope
to send condolences to family of Tacloban accident victim
(Vatican Radio) The Director of the Vatican Press Office, Father
Federico Lombardi SJ, has confirmed that Pope Francis has been informed
of the death of a woman during his Mass earlier today in Leyte, Philippines.
27-year-old Kristel
Mae Padasas, died after the collapse of a piece of scaffolding by the stage
where the Mass was celebrated. She had worked with the Catholic Relief Service
during Typhoon Yolanda.
Pope Francis will be
sending his condolences to her family.
According to the
health official, the incident happened after the Mass when the woman and her
group passed by the altar where the Pope gave his homily.
Because of the strong
winds brought about by tropical storm “Amang,” the scaffold fell and hit the
woman’s head, fracturing her skull. She was immediately sent to a private
hospital but died later on.
