The Funeral Rites for Archbishop Pietro Sambi, Papal Nuncio, will not take place on August 6 at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington as originally announced. His body has already been returned to his beloved Italy.
A Mass of Remembrance is now scheduled for September 14 at the Basilica.
Apparently, the original ceremonies were not logistically possible.
