What Sister Margarita is describing seems to have happened yesterday. What entered her eyes was the scene of the entry into the Pope’s residence: the Pope, who had no life, was lying on her bed.
(Vatican news network) was September 28, 1978, when Albino Luciani was 66 years old and had been in the papal ministry for only 34 days.
His election and first public appearances aroused goodwill and enthusiasm around the world: for his humility, the style of his conversations and the depth of what he said.
After a busy few months, namely the death of Pope Montigny, his funeral, the preparation of the Council of Elections, the election of a new Pope and his first steps, many in the Holy See that summer had to postpone their holidays, at the end of September they were finally able to take a few days off from Rome. Nobody can imagine what will happen.
