Pope Francis’s funeral to be less costly than his predecessors’

The upcoming funeral of Pope Francis is drawing attention not for its grandeur, but for its modest cost compared to previous papal funerals. The Vatican has announced plans to keep the proceedings simple and less expensive, reflecting Pope Francis’s lifelong commitment to humility and frugality. Instead of lavish ceremonies and expansive gatherings that characterized the passing of past popes, this occasion will focus on meaningful, scaled-back events intended to honor the Pope’s wishes. The shift comes as the Catholic Church faces mounting pressure to align its actions with the values of transparency and responsible stewardship.
