Listening to the new Pope’s first blessing? A plenary indulgence is granted under the usual condition (confession, Eucharist, prayers for the Pope within a week). EI 2002, concession 4. Hearing via media is specifically included in the grant. #catholic #conclave #conclave2025

I love listening to the original audio on the Vatican live stream instead of commentary. The crowd is singing the Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen). Earlier, before the smoke, Las Mañanitas. #catholic #conclave #conclave2025 Live stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6MqpK91bEA

This a lovely little website that’ll give you a random cardinal to pray for during the conclave. It’s a nice way to make praying for the conclave a little more personal: https://praycardinal.com/ #catholic #conclave #conclave2025
