The papal conclave beginning May 7th faces various threats including political influences and spiritual challenges, requiring worldwide prayer for the 124 cardinal electors during this sacred process.

• Catholics can "adopt" a cardinal to pray for through adoptacardinal.org
• Vatican preparations include three white cassocks in different sizes for the new Pope.
• The Cardinals and any staff took an oath of secrecy for the conclave proceedings.
• A previous participant described feeling the "palpable presence of the Holy Spirit" during the conclave.
• Speculation centers on Asian candidates like Cardinal Tagle from the Philippines.
• The next pope may choose the name Paul VII or John XXIV rather than Francis II.
• The conclave may last 2-3 days, likely concluding by Friday or Saturday. Although Deacon Mike firmly believes it will be faster.
