Pope Francis Funeral: Nun Breaks Important Protocol During Final Goodbye; Know What Happened With Sister Genevieve

Last week, Pope Francis was buried following the death of the leader of the Catholic Church at 88 years old. In the crowd of people paying their last respects to the head of the Catholic Church, one nun deviated from protocol. Sister Genevieve Jeanningros stepped forward to bid her final farewells to the late pope and violated an essential Vatican rule.

Later on, the nun had a chat with Noticias Telemundo’s journalist, during which she shared her feelings about the Pope. In this conversation, she expressed that the departed Pope was not just a religious figure to her, but also a brother, a leader, and a confidant.

Additionally, she clarified that she routinely showed reverence to the Pope each day, not just during times when news about her was prominent. The nun admitted that she had been preparing for quite some time to be present at his funeral.

The funeral ceremony for Pope Francis occurred at Saint Mary Major Basilica, with the casket arriving approximately at ten o’clock in the morning on the day of the service. Notably, Pope Francis was the first Pontiff in a century who was not interred at St. Peter’s.

Before the burial, the coffin of the late Pontiff was greeted by a group of the less fortunate, often close to his heart – the ‘last ones,’ as they are known.

Notable figures such as President Donald Trump, his wife Melania Trump, Prince William, and numerous other influential individuals were present at the funeral ceremonies.

Based on Agence France Presse’s reports, Sister Genevieve was praised by her nation’s citizens for her actions. The nun dared to enter the section designated for cardinals, priests, and bishops.

According to Telegraph reports, I found myself walking up, supported by another official, towards Pope Francis’ casket, clinging to a rope. As reported by NBC News, my tears flowed unhindered as I mourned his passing. A brief moment was granted to me for grieving.
