  • delivering you the cream of the crop from every genre.

  • Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman.

  • President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will fly to Rome today for the funeral for Pope Francis tomorrow.

  • The Pope died this week of a stroke and heart ailments.

  • After the funeral, world leaders and tourists will go home,

  • but the Catholic Church's top clergy will stay on.

  • Some will join a papal conclave to elect Francis' successor.

  • In Rome, NPR's Lauren Frayer spoke to one of the electors.

  • Cardinal Vincent Nichols is the church's top official for England and Wales, first conclave.

  • It's intimidating, frankly.

  • To choose a leader for the world's 1.4 billion Catholics.

  • Nichols is part of the most diverse College of Cardinals ever.

  • A majority of those voting were appointed by Francis.

  • And now they'll choose his successor via secret ballot in the Sistine Chapel under ceilings painted by Michelangelo.

  • The magnificence of that chapel will be focusing everything we try and do.
