O' HOLY NIGHT
While the flock may be tending to their nighttime needs, rest assured Pope Francis will be sleeping peacefully. He will slumber on an eco-luxury, memory foam Loom & Leaf mattress by Saatva. It was delivered to The St. Charles Seminary, located just outside of Philadelphia. The order was received through Bedding Industries of America (BIA) who specifically chose the Loom & Leaf mattress for The Pope. He will reportedly go to bed at his usual 9:00 p.m. (not watching TV as he never does) and he will wake up at 4:00 a.m. fully rested to deliver Mass on Sunday.
