Just seven years ago, Pope Francis was immortalized to comfort a little boy from Italy, Emmanuel, who was crying and wanted to see him and ask him if his dead atheist father had gone to paradise …

The video of the moving meeting reappeared on Monday, after Pontiff’s death, as people remembered some of the most moving moments of his papacy.

The moving video shows the little Emmanuel, Trying to ask a question to the Pope during a visit to the parish of St. Paul of the Cross in Rome in April 2018.

After the boy burst into tears as he struggled, but he could not ask his question, Pontiff said quickly: “Come on, come to me, Emmanuel. Come and whisper it to my ear. “

The Pope tightened the cowardly little one eventually approached Francis in the podium.

The two spoke with their heads almost resting for several moments before Pope Francis asked the young man if he could tell the crowd what was said to each other,

Pope Francis said that Emmanuel’s father, who was not religious but had baptized his four children, had recently died.

The child, according to Pontiff, wanted to know if his father would be accepted in Paradise, since although he was an atheist he was a good man.

“What a beautiful testimony of a son who inherited the power of his father, who had the courage to cry in front of all of us,” said Francis.

“If this man was able to do his children like that, then he was a good man.”

When the Pope asked the crowd if they believed that God would disrupt this man from paradise when he was good, the crowd replied, “No!”

“Does God leave his children? Does he leave his children when he is well? Here, Emmanuel, this is the answer »said Francis.

“God was certainly proud of your Father, because it is easier for a believer to baptize his children than to baptize them when you are not faithful. Certainly this was very pleased with God. Talk to your father. Pray for your father. Thanks for your courage. “
