Pope Francis Chooses Humble Final Resting Place
As Pope Francis’ health declines, concerns grow over his ability to lead the Church. Yet, instead of resting “alongside his predecessors in the Vatican,” he has chosen a final resting place that reflects his humility and devotion.
Throughout his papacy, Francis has redefined leadership, “embracing humility and prioritizing the needs of the people.” Now, he makes history again by deciding to “forgo burial in the Vatican.”
His choice underscores his lifelong mission of simplicity and service, further cementing his legacy as a pope of the people.
