Prophecy
of
a Franciscan Capuchin Friar
"A Capuchin will become Pope."
 
from a book entitled
"The Christian Trumpet
or
Prevision and Predictions"
Boston
1873

CHAPTER VII 

The opening paragraph on page 54 is as follows: "This prophecy is preserved in the library of the Capuchin Fathers, in Genzano, between Albano and Veletri, near Rome, which has been transcribed from a copy dated 1776." 

"11. By the Catholic clergy and people the true and lawful Pope will be elected, who shall be a man of great holiness and goodness of life, selected from the surviving monastic Order (Capuchin) mentioned above." 

"15. Finally, the Pope will select twelve subjects of his religion, whom he will send through the world to preach missions. They shall have the power of converting the nations to the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, excepting the Hebrews, who are reserved for the end of the world." 


Editors Comments

How prophetic!  A document originally dated 1776 predicted that a Capuchin would become pope.  On October 24, 1998, that prophecy came true! 


Comments by Pope Pius XIII

When the Holy Father Pope Pius XIII read this, he said: 
"What a wonder that a document from 1776 would find its way into a book published in 1873 and surfaces here in 1998- What all should see is that by the Catholic clergy and people of the true and lawful Pope was elected. 

We wonder where such Capuchin Friars exist. We remember that right now there are such strict Capuchins in Europe some place. Keep on praying."
