Transcript
00:01An rosary in honour of Pope Francis took place on Saturday in the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome,
00:07where the pontiff was buried by personal request.
00:11Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, pro-prefect of the dicastery for evangelisation,
00:17led the rosary for the pontiff in the Basilica of Santa Maria.
00:21In this sense, many faithful prayed in unison with the rosary in hand,
00:25each one moved by the gestures and words expressed by the Pope during his life.
00:30In recent days, members of the Church have remembered the Holy Father
00:34and honoured his legacy after more than a decade at the Vatican.
00:38However, what united everyone in prayer was the memory of the Pope and the Virgin
00:43who for 12 years guided the Church and whose work ended with great symbolism last April 21, Easter morning.
00:51O Gesù mio, perdona le nostre colpe, preservaci dal fuoco dell'inferno.
