00:00Brothers and sisters, let us pray to God our Father, who today brings us together to commemorate
00:06the paschal mystery of His only begotten Son, as we celebrate the funeral of the Pastor
00:11of the Universal Church.
00:13May He welcome Him into His peace and bestow every blessing upon the Church and the whole
00:17world.
00:30For the late Pope Francis, that the Chief Shepherd, who eternally lives to intercede for us,
00:44may welcome Him into His kingdom of light and peace.
01:00For the Holy Church of God, that in fidelity to her mandate, she may be, in Christ, a leaven
01:14of renewal in our human family.
01:16For all peoples and nations, that by their tireless pursuit of justice, they may be ever
01:41united in fraternal love and persevere in seeking the paths of peace.
01:46For the souls of the deceased Roman pontiffs and of all those who in the Church proclaim
02:03the Gospel and exercise the priestly ministry, that they may come to share in the heavenly
02:10liturgy.
02:16For all the faithful departed, that they may be granted entrance into the kingdom of heaven.
02:26For us gathered here, that having celebrated the sacred mysteries, we may one day be called
02:48by Christ to enter His glorious kingdom.
02:50God, our salvation, hear us as we make our prayer in union with the Blessed Virgin Mary and all the saints.
02:53Welcome into the assembly of your elect, the soul of your servant and our Pope Francis.
02:58Who put his trust in the prayer of the Church, through Christ our Lord.

04:00of bread and wine to be offered during this celebration on the altar the choir will be
04:07leading us give light into my eyes lest i fall asleep in death lest my enemy say i have prevailed
04:15over him so the words of psalm 12 and of course the offering of gifts or the offertree is a moment
04:35when the faithful present bread and wine which will be consecrated into the body and blood of christ
04:40in today's context during the celebration at this requiem mass for pope francis this act takes on
04:52additional meaning as we also symbolically offer his life to god it is a gesture of surrender and
04:59trust acknowledging that pope francis is now in god's care and as we know pope francis once said
05:06our lives do not end with death the test for life found its true and reliable answer in the
05:11resurrection of jesus christ

07:15who conquered death and opened the way to eternal life
