I wish my last earthly journey to end in this ancient Marian Sanctuarium, where I went to pray at the beginning and at the end of every apostolic journey to entrust my intentions to the Immaculate Mother and thank her for her kind and mother care. ”

The grave – as it is said – should be in the ground, simple, without special decoration and with the only inscription: Francis.
Expenditure on the preparation of my funeral will be paid from the amount of the donor I have made to transfer for the Papal Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, and regarding the adequate instructions of Mons. Rolandas macrickas, an extraordinary commissioner of the Liberian chapter. ”
