The Dutch family Bavinck is mourning on Sint-Pietersplein: ‘Hope that future Pope line will continue Francis’

Pope Franciscus died not only on the morning of Easter Monday, but also on the day on which the birthday of the city of Rome is celebrated. Monday, April 21, is the 2278th birthday of Rome. And one of the most important titles of the Pope is that he is Bishop of Rome. Pope Francis attached value to this title and always preferred to spoke in Italian, despite his Argentinian nationality.
