A homeless Brazilian-born poet who lived around the Vatican died this week and his funeral was celebrated by two cardinals.
    The man, Juan Carlos de Sousa, who was cared for by the Papal Almoner. He died of an unspecified illness.
    The princes of the Church who said his death Mass were the almoner, Konrad Krajewski, and the archbishop of Manaus in Brazil, Ulrich Steiner.
    Cardinal Steiner said in a briefing with journalists on the current Synod: "I heard that a Brazilian had died and I felt the need to celebrate his funeral.
    "Then I learned that he was a person who lived in need, who asked for help and who wrote poetry. It was a great privilege.
    "The celebration was attended by his companions, all the other homeless people, who then placed a flower on the coffin.
    "It is deeply moving: in poverty, in almost nothingness, there exists a truly evangelical brotherhood."
