When Getcha entered the chapel in the Apostolic Palace on June 29, Francis explained to him that Paul VI wanted to keep a part of the relics of Saint Peter in his private chapel.
Francis then recounted that “during the prayer the previous evening” he had the following thought:
“I no longer live in the Apostolic Palace, I never use this chapel, I never serve the Holy Mass here, and we have St. Peter’s relics in the basilica itself, so it will be better if they will be kept in Constantinople” [where there are almost no faithful].
According to Francis, the relics are a gift for the Church of Constantinople, for “my brother Patriarch Bartholomew.”
“This gift is not from me, it is a gift from God,” he alleged boastfully.
