Tears, Prayers & Applause As Pope's Coffin Reaches St Peter's Basilica After Solemn Procession

A deeply emotional and historic moment unfolded at the Vatican on Wednesday as Catholic cardinals performed the solemn ritual of transferring Pope Francis’ body from his residence at the Domus Santa Marta to St. Peter’s Basilica for public viewing. Cardinal Kevin Farrell, temporarily heading Vatican administration, presided over the private ceremony attended by cardinals in red cassocks, with a choir echoing hymns of mourning. Francis’ casket was flanked by Swiss Guards, and a candle-lit procession of priests led the movement into the basilica.#popefrancis #stpeterbasilica #domussantamarta
