“Let us commend to God’s tender mercy the soul of Pope Francis, Bishop of the Catholic Church,” Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re stated.
Pope Francis, the 266th pope of the Roman Catholic Church, might be buried Saturday on the Basilica of Saint Mary Major after dying one week in the past at 88 years previous. Francis, who took his title after Saint Francis of Assisi, was recognized for his outreach to the poor and people in poverty and that might be mirrored in his minimalist burial at Saint Mary Major. He is the primary pope to be buried outdoors the Vatican in over a century and the primary to be buried at Santa Maria Maggiore in additional than 300 years.
