The Bishop of Wrexham, the Right Reverend Peter Brignall, has commented on the death of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.

As we mourn the passing of Pope Emeritus Benedict and give thanks to God for the blessings bestowed upon the Church and the world through this successor of St. Peter, may he know through the love of God and the birth the Good Shepherd among us be brought by Him to the glory of the heavenly Kingdom.​

Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord
and let perpetual light shine upon him,
may he rest in peace.
Amen.​
