Jean-Paul II est mort
CITE DU VATICAN, samedi 2 avril 2005 (ZENIT.org)
– « Notre Saint-Père est retourné à la Maison
du Père à 21h37 ». C’est par ces paroles que l’archevêque
Leonardo Sandri, substitut de la secrétairerie d’Etat du Vatican,
a annoncé la mort de Jean-Paul II, des sanglots dans la voix.
Il était environ 22 heures, heure locale. Mgr Sandri a annoncé la mort du pape, place Saint Pierre où étaient réunies plus de 60.000 personnes qui participaient à une veillée de prière pour le Saint-Père.
La foule, émue, a longuement applaudi puis a récité le « Salve Regina », à genoux. De nombreux fidèles levaient les yeux remplis de larmes vers les fenêtres illuminées de l’appartement du Saint-Père.
Le cardinal Sodano, secrétaire d’Etat, a alors invité les fidèles à réciter la prière « de profundis » en latin puis en italien.
Après le chant final du « Regina Caeli », quelques fidèles ont commencé à quitter la place Saint Pierre, mais la foule, dans sa très grande majorité, a continué à prier, debout, dans un silence impressionnant, pendant près d’un quart d’heure.
Les cloches de la Basilique Saint Pierre ont sonné le glas, de même que les quelque mille cloches de Cracovie où Karol Wojtyla a été ordonné prêtre.
Dans la soirée d’hier le pape pensait probablement aux jeunes qu’il a rencontrés dans le monde entier tout au long de son pontificat. Il semblait en effet faire référence à eux lorsque à travers ses paroles on a pu à plusieurs reprises reconstruire la phrase : « Je vous ai cherchés. Maintenant vous êtes venus à moi. Et je vous remercie » ».

John Paul II's Death Announced
"Final Hours Marked by Uninterrupted Prayer"
VATICAN CITY, APRIL 2, 2005 (Zenit.org).- Here is the statement released by Vatican spokesman Joaquín Navarro Valls, publicly announcing the death of John Paul II.
* * *
The Holy Father died at 9:37 (7:37 EST) this evening
in his private apartment.
At 8 p.m. the celebration of Mass for Divine Mercy Sunday began in the Holy Father's room, presided by Archbishop Stanislaw Dziwisz, with the participation of Cardinal Marian Jaworski, of Archbishop Stanislaw Rylko and of Monsignor Mieczyslaw Mokrzycki.
During the course of the Mass, the Viaticum was administered to the Holy Father and, once again, the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick.
The Holy Father's final hours were marked by the uninterrupted prayer of
all those who were assisting him in his pious death, and by the choral participation
in prayer of the thousands of
faithful who, for many hours, had been gathered in St. Peter's Square.
Present at the moment of the death of John Paul II were: his two personal secretaries, Archbishop Stanislaw Dziwisz and Monsignor Mieczyslaw Mokrzycki, Cardinal Marian Jaworski, Archbishop Stanislaw Rylko, Father Tadeusz Styczen, the three nuns, Handmaidens of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, who assist in the Holy Father's apartment, guided by the Superior Sister Tobiana Sobódka, and the Pope's personal physician Dr. Renato Buzzonetti, with the two doctors on call, Dr. Alessandro Barelli and Dr. Ciro D'Allo, and the two nurses on call.
Immediately afterwards the secretary of state, Cardinal Angelo Sodano arrived, as did the chamberlain of Holy Roman Church, Cardinal Eduardo Martínez Somalo, Archbishop Leonardo Sandri, substitute of the Secretariat of State, and Archbishop Paolo Sardi, vice-chamberlain of Holy Roman Church.
Thereafter, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, dean of the College of Cardinals, and Cardinal Jozef Tomko also arrived.
Tomorrow, Divine Mercy Sunday, at 10.30 a.m., a Mass for the repose of the soul of the Holy Father will be celebrated in St. Peter's Square, presided over by Cardinal Angelo Sodano.
At 12 noon, the Marian prayer of Easter time, the Regina Coeli, will be recited.
The body of the late pontiff is expected to be brought to the Vatican Basilica no earlier than Monday afternoon.
The first General Congregation of Cardinals will be held at 10 a.m. on Monday, April 4 in the Bologna Hall of the Apostolic Palace.

Saturday Morning Update on Pope's Health
* * *
The following information is an update as of 9 this morning:
The general, cardio-respiratory and metabolic conditions of the Holy Father are substantially unchanged and therefore are very serious.
As of dawn this morning, the start of a compromised state of consciousness
was observed.
Mass was celebrated at 7:30 this morning in the presence of the Pope.
Last evening the Pope probably had in mind the young people whom he has met
throughout the world during his pontificate. In fact, he seemed to be referring
to them when, in his words, and repeated several times, he seemed to have
said the following sentence: "I have looked for you. Now you have
come to me. And I thank you".
