Pope Francis offered his daily Mass for those who have died in solitude during the COVID-19 pandemic.
POPE FRANCIS
Today we pray for the deceased who have died because of the pandemic. They have died alone, without the caresses of their loved ones. So many did not even have a funeral. May the Lord welcome them into His glory.
The total number of reported deaths related to COVID-19 exceeds 250,000. Countries like Italy, Spain and Germany, which are showing diminished death rates, have begun to gradually return to normalcy.
