Every year, the Pope offers a Mass to remember all the cardinals and bishops who have passed away in the last year. This year, Pope Francis remembered both the more than 100 men who have died and his predecessor, Pope emeritus Benedict XVI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
POPE FRANCIS The Mass concluded with a Marian hymn as Pope Francis prayed in front of an image of Our Lady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2022, the Pope presided over this Mass on All Souls Day because the following day on November 3, he began his 4 day trip to the Kingdom of Bahrain\u2014the first time a pope had ever visited the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n KG<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In St. Peter's Basilica, the Pope offered a Mass in remembrance for the more than 100 bishops and cardinals and the Pope emeritus who passed away in the last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":758,"featured_media":62143,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27,206,178,24,25],"tags":[],"acf":{"video":"https:\/\/youtu.be\/TJwz-UJIY3U","video_descarga":"https:\/\/attuale.romereports.com\/news\/bmessabenedettodefuntieng.mp4","international_url":"https:\/\/attuale.romereports.com\/news\/bmessabenedettodefuntiint.mp4","type":"bn","newsletter":"si"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62142"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/758"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=62142"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62142\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":62146,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62142\/revisions\/62146"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/62143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=62142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=62142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=62142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
<\/strong>I would like to recall the very first words with which Pope Benedict described himself following his election: \u201ca humble laborer in the vineyard of the Lord.\u201d Indeed, Christians, especially the Pope, the Cardinals and the Bishops, are called to be humble laborers, to serve, not to be served and to put the fruits of the Lord\u2019s vineyard before their own. What a fine thing it is to renounce ourselves for the Church of Jesus!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
