John Hume - a man who never passed a person in trouble

Fr John Farren preached a powerful and inspiring sermon at the funeral Mass of John Hume in the Cathedral of St Eugene in Derry this morning.

He spoke about the man, who won the Nobel Prize for Peace, the International Gandhi Peace Prize and the Martin Luther King Peace Award, who always came to the cathedral in Derry to pray for peace and find peace.

Fr Farren acknowledged how the world had recognised that John Hume was a man of peace.
