…in ALL Papabili

I know, right? what a great word: Papabili!

Papabili: (Italian, plural of papabile,
meaning “pope-able”)

It is a term used to describe cardinals who are considered likely or suitable candidates to be elected pope during a papal conclave. While not an official designation, it reflects speculation or consensus among observers, journalists, or insiders about who has the qualities, experience, or support to become the next pontiff.

While formating our very exciting, brand new

Papabili Craft kit

featuring 147 Cardinals,
any of whom could very well be elected,

through the wisdom and power and brilliance
of the Holy Spirit to be our next Holy Father,

I have become acquainted with so many holy Cardinals! I have been listening to podcasts, reading articles and watching youtube videos with commentary about the upcoming Conclave, but most of all I am compelled to pray, pray, pray for the Holy Spirit to pour down the Graces to inspire and influence the conversations, preaching and presentations and ultimately the voting for the next Holy Father in the upcoming Conclave set for next Wednesday, May 7th!

Papabili!

Eternal rest
grant unto Pope Francis, O Lord,

and let perpetual light
shine upon him.

May the souls of
all the faithful departed,

through the mercy of God,
rest in peace. Amen.

Blessings to you these 50 Days of Easter!

So sorry for our loss of our dear Pope Francis.

With gratitude for the life and witness of Pope Francis, who shepherded us with humility, joy, and love for the poor, we now entrust the Church to the Holy Spirit’s Guidance as a new chapter of Grace begins in the election of our next Holy Father.
