Pope to preside on Palm Sunday after hospital stay

0 minutes, 24 seconds Read

During both Palm Sunday and Easter Mass, Francis is expected to remain seated while a cardinal conducts the ceremony at the altar.

The Vatican said it was an arrangement adopted before the pope’s latest illness, as he is no longer able to stand for long periods.

Francis was feeling unwell on Wednesday during a general audience in St Peter’s Square, but his condition improved after being given antibiotics.

This was his second hospitalization since 2021, when he underwent colon surgery at Gemeli itself.
