    Members of the Catholic Church are keeping a close eye this week on activity at the Sistine Chapel, as the process begins to select a new pope.

    A total of 133 cardinal electors from around the world are gathered in the Vatican City for an election that could last hours, days, or perhaps even months, following the death of Pope Francis on April 21.

    Locally, church leaders in Manhattan are praying for the conclave.
