Feeling that the sunset of my earthly life is approaching and with an lively hope in eternal life, I want to express my testamentary only with respect to the place of my burial. I have always trusted my life and my priestly and episcopal ministry to the mother of Our Lord, Mary Más Santa. Therefore, I ask that my mortal remains rest waiting on the day of the resurrection in the papal basilica or Santa María Maggiore.

I want my last earthly trip to end precisely in this former Marian sanctuary, where I went to pray at the beginning and end of each apostolic trip to trust my intentions to the immaculate mother and thank her docile and maternal care.

I ask that my grave is prepared in the niche of the side nave betting on some of the Paulina Chapel (Chapel of Salus Populi Romani) and the Sforza chapel of the papal basilica mentioned as indicated in the closed attachment.

The grave must be on earth; Simple, without particular decoration and with the only registration: Francisco.

The expenses for the preparation of my funeral will be covered by the sum of the benefactor that I have organized, to be transferred to the papal basilica or Santa María Maggiore and what I have shown that appropriates from Mons. ROLANDAS MAKRICKAS, extraordinary commissioner of the Liberian chapter.

That the Lord gives the deserved reward to those who have loved me and will continue to pray for me. The suffering that has become present in the last part of my life that I have offered to the Lord for peace in the world and Brother Hood among the peoples.
