The Catholic Church lost its leader, Pope Francis, on Monday, 21st April. His body was displayed in an open coffin, the evening of the very same day. The coffin was made out of wood and Zinc, just like he ordered, and was displayed in his Vatican residence, the chapel of Casa Santa Marta. The Cardinals met on Tuesday to decide the date of the funeral and the conclave to elect a new Cardinal into the Papacy. His body was later transferred to St. Peter's Basilica, escorted by a procession of Cardinals and Swiss Guards. This allows three days of public viewing for the Catholics to pay their respects and offer prayers. His funeral is set to take place on Saturday, 26th April in St. Peter's Square. His coffin will then be transferred to the Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica in Rome, where he will rest forever.
