Faithful pray in memory of the late Pope Francis at St Mary’s Cathedral in Yangon AFP As Catholics filed into Myanmar's grandest cathedral to mourn Pope Francis on Tuesday, a wartime power cut plunged the worship hall into a murky gloom. But at the front of the pews a portrait of the pontiff remained illuminated by an unseen source -- a backup bulb or an open window keeping the image of his face vivid and bright. It was a fitting tribute for a faith leader Myanmar Catholics hailed for shining a light on their country in its recent dark and wartorn times.
