Vatican announces daily rosary for Pope Francis, just like it did for John Paul II years ago
Date created:
Starting Monday, a rosary will be prayed daily at 9:00 PM in St. Peter's Square in Rome for the health of Pope Francis. Cardinals, collaborators of the Roman Curia and representatives of the Roman diocese will take part in the prayers.
The initiative is intended to be a spiritual support for the Pope and an expression of the "feelings of the People of God." The prayer of the rosary will be led by the Secretary of State of the Holy See, Cardinal Pietro Parolin. The Vatican reported that Pope Francis, who is staying at the Gemelli Polyclinic in Rome, is conscious and continues therapy.
Following the example of prayers for John Paul IIThe rosary prayer in St. Peter's Square recalls a similar initiative that took place during the illness of Pope John Paul II. At that time, the faithful gathered in the square every day to pray for the health of the Holy Father.
