Vatican City – Pope Francis’s funeral will take place in the Vatican on Saturday at 10 am local time, with notable attendees including US President Donald Trump and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. The ceremony will reflect Pope Francis’s desire for simplicity, following his amendments to funeral rites that emphasize humility and his role as a disciple of Christ, rather than a worldly leader. Expected to draw hundreds of thousands, the funeral will feature a variety of languages in its proceedings, with Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re presiding over the mass.
