UNDERSTAND THESE POWERFUL WORDS CATHOLICS USE WHEN A POPE DIES OR RESIGNS😲

As we receive the heartbreaking news of the passing of Pope Francis, many Catholics are hearing deep, sacred words used in Vatican tradition, yet most don’t know what they mean.

So, I prepared this simple and clear guide to help us all understand. Please read to the end and share with others.

💥1. Sedes Vacante
Latin for "The Seat is Vacant." This happens when the Pope dies or resigns. The “seat” here means the Chair of St. Peter, the spiritual leadership of the Catholic Church. Until a new Pope is elected, the seat remains empty.

💥2. Apostolic See
This refers to the Pope’s authority as the Bishop of Rome and successor of St. Peter. When a Pope dies, we say the Apostolic See is vacant.

💥3. Camerlengo
The Cardinal appointed to handle the Church’s affairs during the vacancy. He verifies the Pope's death, seals the Papal apartment, and oversees preparations for the next election.

💥4. Sistine Chapel
This is the sacred chapel in Vatican City where the Cardinals gather to vote for a new Pope. It's also where Michelangelo’s famous ceiling artwork is found.

💥5. Conclave
From Latin “cum clave” meaning “with a key.” The Cardinals are literally locked inside the Sistine Chapel to pray, vote, and choose the next Pope, in silence and secrecy.

💥6. Black Smoke
When you see black smoke rising from the Sistine Chapel, it means the Cardinals **have voted, but no decision yet.

💥7. White Smoke
The moment white smoke appears, the world rejoices! It means a new Pope has been elected.

💥8. Habemus Papam
Latin for “We have a Pope!” These are the words shouted from the Vatican balcony to announce the new Holy Father to the world.

The Catholic Church is rich with meaning, history, and sacred tradition. Let us not just be followers of news, let us be people of understanding.

Let’s not just follow the news and what is happening in the Vatican, but educate, enlighten, and embrace the beauty of our faith, even in sorrow.

After the death and the funeral of Pope Francis, a process will be set to choose his successor. The pope, who died at 88, made a series of travels to Africa throughout his tenure. During his period, the Church also gravitated more to the developing world, with an enhancement of the influence of sub-Saharan Africa, Asia and Latin America. Pope Francis also ordained several African cardinals including the very first in some African nations. Projections show that one third of the world’s Catholics will be African by 2050. But will the boost in people of Catholic faith from Africa within the Church also lead to a bigger African influence in the Vatican? And how likely are we to see the first African pope? Here are some of the likely contenders.
