French Cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline grumbled the baby in a church near Monti, Rome on Sunday. Hungary's Cardinal Peter Erdo asked for prayers to the cardinal in a church near the Colosseum. The Congo's cardinal Fridolin Ambongo joined the priest behind the altar of the church in western Rome.
The three cardinals (although not their favorite contenders) were among those celebrating Mass across Rome on Sunday, their last public appearance before the meeting to elect the new pope to begin Wednesday.
The campaign rally is not. But in the homosexuality delivered by the Cardinal and in the interaction with faithfulness, they presented the messages they might give to other Cardinals and what kind of pope they might want or want to be.
All Cardinals were assigned the nominal church in Rome. When they are in the city, they have the option to celebrate the Mass there. Some, such as Cardinal Aveline and Cardinal Luis Tagle in the Philippines, are a leading pope contender that has already done so last week. Cardinal Tagle attracted hundreds of Filipinos Thursday in the nominal church in his gritty suburb of Centocelle. On Sunday, a large number of little-known cardinals also radiated the entire city, giving the longing Vatican Watchmen the opportunity to take their outstanding pictures throughout the town.
But these two Italian favorites, Cardinal Pietro Parolin and Pierbattista Pizzaballa, did not attend the pulpit on Sunday, and like leaders in the political movement, they chose to remain silent rather than make mistakes and lose elections.
Regardless, some curious Catholics and journalists reviewed the Cardinal's every move – appearing in the titular church of Cardinal Pizzaballa, in hopes of a glimpse of the potential new pope.
“What I will understand is whether you want to go,” the pastor of the Church of San Anovrio Al Gianicolo, overlooking the hills of Rome, tells about more than a dozen parishioners. “Cardinal Pizzaballa will not be the day after today or tomorrow or tomorrow.”
The parishioners stayed. Six journalists strolled and chatted with 63-year-old banker Francesco Ziaco, who came to see Cardinal Pizzaballa, who also happened to look like him.
(A reporter from the Italian broadcaster Rai asked if Mr. Ziaco was a cardinal and secretly dressed in civilian costumes.
The Cardinal who celebrated the Mass received enthusiastic support.
There was only one standing crowd filled with the cathedral of Basilica Di Santa Francesca Romana, also known as Santa Maria Nova, waiting for the arrival of Archbishop Estegom Badapstre, Cardinal Eldo. Several rows of chairs near the front of the church were painted on golden chairs, reserved for VIPs, including the Hungarian ambassadors to the Roman Catholic Church and Italy.
The Cardinal is among the favorites of conservative Catholics, urging the faithful pope to pray “who must deepen the mission of the church in the dramatic stages of human history”.
“Today's church must first face its ambitions,” he said. He called for the protection of traditions, and the church focused on preaching the gospel.
Cardinal Erdo, 72, has not been associated with parishioners. He waved the reporters, they asked questions but lowered his car window to say hello on the way out.
Cardinal Avilin felt lighter in quality on Sunday. He thanked Virgin Aeronautics of the Mountain for performing the “Little Miracle” and opening a service in Santa Maria Ai Monti. Later, the Rev. Francesco Pesce, the parish pastor, explained that the Cardinal's bag was stolen during the mass at the church last week. Discovered three days later.
Father Pesce joked that he would become the pope and become the cardinal of his Secretary of State Avilin. There was laughter around. The Cardinal thanked the diocese for making him feel at home.
“Don't be afraid of the truth, it will keep us free,” said Aveline, 66, of Marseille, during his sympathy. “Don’t be afraid of those who are different from us, because every man and every woman are brothers and sisters of the Rise of Christ.”
Cardinal Avilin appointed the teenagers who were confirmed a week ago, one of whom was the sacrament of the Roman Catholic Church. He stopped in the front seat and shook hands with the primary school children, and later he joined the sacrificial chat. He talked to parishioners and the baby of the beat. He did not speak to the reporter.
In San Gabriele Arcangelo All'Acqua Traversa, Archbishop of Kinshasa Cardinal Ambongo pointed out that an altar with the universality of the church was sent from an altar by priests from the Philippines, India, Madagascar and Italy.
Francis’ favorite cardinal Ambongo, 65, asked believers to pray for the cardinals who entered the meeting so that they would “choose as the Pope of the Universal Church” to face challenges in the modern world.
After the Mass, the Cardinal met with journalists and stayed in touch with the discipline that made many political agents jealous.
“I ask for prayer, not for a cardinal, for a base bishop from some parts of the world,” he said. “We pray for the pastor of God who wants to be for His universal church.”
Cardinal Brother And, who avoided issues about homosexuality, lesbianity and transgender Catholics, does not mean more than inclusiveness, said: “It’s not the time to talk about these things.”
He then greeted the parishioners, kissed a baby, and went for lunch, hoping that the pope election would be short-lived. “We hope it won't take a long time,” he said.
