As each year at the beginning of Lent, Pope Francis and his advisors will dedicate several days to participate in a series of spiritual exercises.<\/p>\n
Due to the pandemic they will be performed individually rather than as a group, and take place in the Vatican. They began on Sunday afternoon and will continue until Friday.<\/p>\n
Pope Francis introduced the practice of holding the spiritual exercises outside of the Vatican. Previously his team shared a bus to travel to the outskirts of Rome to a house run by the Society of St. Paul.<\/p>\n
For nearly five days they stayed in isolation, meditating and listening to the reflections of a preacher, although they weren't always easy to understand, not even for the Pope. <\/p>\n
POPE FRANCIS<\/strong> The last time Pope Francis carried out the spiritual exercises here was in 2019. In 2020 he stayed in the Vatican due to a cold, although the Holy See said it was not coronavirus. In 2021 and 2022, the trip was suspended as a safety measure against COVID-19.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n JRB March 7, 2022. Public events related to the exercises will take place in week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":10907,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"acf":{"video":"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rh1IBqp1D0c","video_descarga":"http:\/\/attuale.romereports.com\/news\/besercizispiritualieng.mp4","international_url":"http:\/\/attuale.romereports.com\/news\/besercizispiritualiint.mp4","type":"rrp","newsletter":"si"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44145"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44145"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44145\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10907"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.romereports.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
\nIt made me laugh when you said someone in only reading the titles of the meditations, couldn't understand what the goal was. I was also a little disoriented in the first meditation, but later I understood the message. Thank you.<\/em><\/p>\n
