On the coffin, the symbol of Teresita that “heard”

Salvator Cinosio – Vatican City

In a marble table, under the paintings and symbols, outside its own land of Santa Marta, there was always a white and attractive rose. He was a symbol of his relationship with “Teresita”, Theresa de Lesio, the saint who has always been to ask for thanks and who trusts his lips in his personal and those of others.

A white rose from last night settles on another marble, a Laigor origin board with registration Francis In Bazilica, Santa Maria, a president, under which fatal remains of Pope Francis are comfortable. It is not an artistic choice, but continuity and dedication.

This flower was accompanied by the life of Jorge Mario Berglo. He had talked about it in the book player JesuitArgentine journalists Sergio Rubian and Franchiska Ambroixe, who, when describing the Library of Bishops of Buenos Aires at the time, described a vase full of white roses on the shelf, in front of Paul’s pound in 1997.

“When I face a problem – the future Pope explained to the journalists – I ask the saint, not to solve it, but take it in her hand and help me accept it, and as a brand I always receive a white rose.”

This also happened at the beginning of Pontificate, in September 2013, when the protest in Plaza de San Pedro was required for La Paz in Syria, which at that time was at the risk of falling into the blood of the bloody conflict. During the vigil, the Santa Teresa de Lesio and Pope Francis’s hair fragments were read, and a white rose gathered in a gardener in the Vatican Gardens.

The Pope received the same gift a few days after the end of his hospitalization at Gemelli Polyclinic for dual pulmonary inflammation: a white rose from Santa Teresa, wrapped, from the Lesio house. Keep it on the bed table. “A mark” that Sufism accompanied him until the last moments of his life.
