Archbishop Raymond L. Burke is asking all parishes in the archdiocese to celebrate Masses on Monday, April 18, for the election of a new pope.

"In order to involve the entire Catholic Church, to the fullest extent possible in praying for the election of a new pope, the Office of Liturgical Celebrations of the Supreme Pontiff has issued a note which exhorts intercessory prayer for the new pope’s election," Archbishop Burke wrote in a memo to parishes.
