Pope Francis died on Easter Monday after celebrating Easter one last time on this side of the veil before going home to the Father. We reflect on his legacy and discuss what happens next for the Catholic Church during this time of transition. Both hosts received the news early in the morning and took time to pray and process. (UPDATE: Funeral is now Saturday 4/26
Check out Sarah Hart's new song celebrating Pope Francis' life.
Some Highlights from our reflective show on Pope Francis and his legacy:
• We both admired Pope Francis for his pastoral nature and commitment to those on the peripheries.
• When a pope dies: We discuss the various rituals: his body is prepared for a wake, a funeral Mass & burial takes place quickly, and then the conclave begins after 15-20 days.
• Pope Francis appointed many cardinals from countries never before represented in the College of Cardinals which will make for an interesting conclave.
• Deacon Mike and Fr. Damian discuss some potential papal candidates include Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa from Jerusalem and Cardinal Tagle from the Philippines
• The Easter season reminds us that "death is not the end" as we celebrate resurrection and new life.
• This Sunday is Divine Mercy Sunday featuring the gospel story of "Doubting Thomas"
