Days before delivery, the Cardinals in Rome, the stadium messages to the seats

Cardinal Jean -Marc Avilin from France pledged on Sunday in a church in the Monte neighborhood of Rome. Cardinal Peter Erdo asked Hungary to prayers for his Cardinate colleagues in a church near the Colosseum. Cardinal Friedolin Ambongo of Congo from all over the world joined the altar of a church in Western Rome.

The three Cardinals – who considered the competitors, and if not the favorites, would become the next Pope – among those who celebrate the Mass throughout Rome on Sunday, which made among their final general appearances before the new title of the new Pope started on Wednesday.

Campaign gatherings were not. But in the bones made by the Cardinals, and in their interactions with the believers, they gave hints to the messages they might provide to other cruise, and to what kind of Pope they may want, or they want to be.

All Cardinals are appointed as what is known as the luxury church in Rome; When they are in the city, they can choose to celebrate the Mass there. Some, like Cardinal Avilin and Cardinal Louis Tag From the Philippines, a pioneering papacy competitor, he actually did this last week. Cardinal drew hundreds of Filipino believers to his luxurious church in the Centoceelle suburb on Thursday. A large group of less well -known Cardinals all over the city also launched on Sunday, giving Vatican monitors an opportunity to take pictures of Eminses throughout the city.

But the Italian Cardinate, the Cardinate Petro Barolin And Pierbattista Pizzaballa did not come to the pulpit on Sunday, as they behave as the first position in a political campaign who chose to remain silent rather than mistake and lose an electoral ground.

A few curious Catholics – and news journalists who audit the Cardinals appeared in every step – to the Cardinal Bizabala Church anyway, hoping to look at a possible new Pontif.

“I will understand if you want to go,” tell the priest at the Santofrio Al -Jiannokolo Church, on a hill overlooking Rome, about dozens of parish sons. “Cardinal Bizabala will not be here today, tomorrow, or the next day for tomorrow.”

The people of the parish remained. Correspondents walked in half a batch of batch, calling for chatting with Francesco Ziako, a 63-year-old banker who came to see Cardinal Bizabala-who happened to him very much.

(A correspondent from Ray, the Italian broadcaster, asked Mr. Ziako if he was the Cardinal, and he goes to secrecy in civil clothing. Although he was not, he admitted, “The first time I saw his image, I thought,” This man looks like me. “

Cardinate who celebrated the Mass with enthusiastic support.

A crowd of the permanent room only occupied the basilica de Santa Francesca Romana, also known as Santa Maria Nova, pending the arrival of the Cardinal Erdo, the bishop of Esterjoom-Buda. Several rows of gold -drawn chairs are allocated near the introduction of the church to prominent characters, including the Hungarian ambassadors To the Holy See And to Italy.

In his sermon, the Cardinal, who is preferred for conservative Catholics, urged those who believe in prayer for the new Pope “who will have to deepen the church’s mission in a dramatic stage in the history of humanity.”

He said: “Today’s church must face its ambitious issue,” and called for the protection of traditions and the church to focus on preaching.

Cardinal Erdou, 72, did not mix with the parish. He waved the journalists who asked questions, but he reduced his car window on his way to reviving a young child.

On Sunday, Cardinal Avenue’s tone felt lighter. The service was opened in Santa Maria Ai Monti by thanking the Virgin of the mountain for the performance of a “small miracle”. Later on the service, the parish priest, Reverend Francesco Pesce, explained that the Cardinal Bag was stolen in a mass in the church last week. After three days, it was found.

Father Pescis joked that he would become the Pope and make Cardinal Avilin the Foreign Minister. There were laughs everywhere. Cardinal thanked the parish sons for making him feel at home.

“Do not be afraid of the truth, so we will release us,” said Cardinal Avilin, 66, the Archbishop of Marseille, said during his sermon. “Do not be afraid of those who differ from us, because every man and every woman is a sister and a sister who was done by Christ.”

Cardinal Avilin named the teenagers who were individually confirmed, one of the secrets in the Roman Catholic Church, a week ago. He stopped next to the front seats to shake hands with primary school children who later joined him in Al -Qaisi to chat. Talk to the children of the parish and educate children. He did not talk to the correspondents.

In Saint Gabriel Arkanjelo Clacua Trasa, Cardinal Ambongo, head of Kinshasa’s bishops, explained a point to emphasize the universality of the church in a sermon that was handed over from a altar with priests of the Philippines, India, Madagascar and Italy.

Cardinal Ambongo, 65, who is preferred for Francis, asked believers to pray for the Cardinals who enter on the side until the Holy Spirit is highly shed to the “Pope” church, which is preparing to face the challenges of the modern world.

After the Mass, the Cardinal met with the correspondents, and staying on a message with a kind of discipline that would make many political participants feel jealous.

He said: “I asked for prayers – not for the prayers for the sake of Cardinal, for karalia from a specific part of the world.” “We pray for the priest that God wants for his global church.”

Cardinal Ambongo escapes questions about gay, lesbians and transgender Catholics, who were less than their comprehensive comments, or previous comments that a woman cannot become the Pope, saying: “It is not time to talk about these things.”

Then he said, hello to a diocese, before a child and went for lunch, in hope, he said, that the papal elections will be short. “We hope it will not take a long time,” he said.
