Pope Francis prayed the Angelus with the faithful virtually, yet again. He announced two important events to take place in the coming week. <\/p>\n
Wednesday, he invited all Christian dominations to participate in praying the Our Father at noon, Rome time. <\/p>\n
POPE FRANCIS<\/strong> From there, he also announced a rare event: he will give an Urbi et Orbi blessing, given very sparingly. It will take place on Friday, March 27 at 6 p.m., Rome time to an empty St. Peter's Square.<\/p>\n POPE FRANCIS <\/strong> Pope Francis also reflected on the Gospel of the day, in which the blind man was healed by Jesus. The pope focused on the theme \u201clight.\u201d <\/p>\n POPE FRANCIS <\/strong> It is God's forgiveness and mercy which destroys the culture of darkness in the world and brings with it a new light. He explained that during this Lenten season, Christians have time to get closer to Christ and experience this mercy. <\/p>\n At the end of the prayer, he went to the window where he normally recites the Angelus and blessed an empty St. Peter's Square. It is a sign of solidarity in the midst of the pandemic. <\/p>\n Melissa Butz<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" March 23, 2020.

\n I invite everyone to pray it many times a day, but everyone together, let us pray the Our Father on Wednesday, March 25 at noon. Everyone together.<\/em><\/p>\n
\n I invite everyone to participate spiritually through the various means of communication. We will listen to the Word of God, lift our intentions, adore the Blessed Sacrament, and at the end, I will give the Urbi et Orbi Blessing, with the possibility to receive a plenary indulgence. <\/em><\/p>\n
\n His journey of illumination is a metaphor for the path of liberation of sin to which we are called. Sin is a dark veil that covers our eyes. <\/em><\/p>\n
