- Over a quarter of a million people from all walks of life gathered in St. Peter’s Square on Saturday to bid their final farewell to Pope Francis at his Requiem Mass.
The solemn liturgy was presided over by Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, Dean of the College of Cardinals, who was joined by around 250 Cardinals, Patriarchs, Archbishops, Bishops, priests, consecrated religious, and lay people.
In his homily, Cardinal Re delved into the many highlights of his remarkable and intense 12 years of Petrine Ministry, marked by his style of closeness to the people and spontaneity of his actions until the very end, but most importantly, his deep love for the Church.

- Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa leads the fifth evening Rosary in memory of Pope Francis.
In his introductory words before leading the Rosary, Cardinal Pizzaballa reminded the faithful that to follow the Lord means to trust in Him and in His word.
Reflecting on the day's Gospel, Cardinal Pizzaballa noted that in the days following the Resurrection, the disciples withdraw into themselves and try to return to their daily lives, in an attempt to avoid thinking about the painful events they have experienced.
"We too, when faced with such a mystery, are tempted to be overwhelmed, and we struggle to place our trust in God", said the cardinal, adding that "with the death of our beloved Holy Father Francis, we too experience the difficulty of believing".
This evening, he cotìntinued, "we wish to ask the Blessed Virgin Mary, Salus Populi Romani, to help us lift our hearts and transform this hour of sorrow into a dawn of hope".
