As Easter approaches, Pope Francis prays to empty mass.
, images from an empty Friday mass at St. Peter's Basilica paint a stark portrait of the Vatican, which, along with surrounding Italy, has been afflicted by coronavirus.
During the rain-soaked Urbi and Orbi prayer, Pope Francis stood underneath a canopy as he held service to an empty St. Peter's Square. The Pope likened the coronavirus pandemic to an"unexpected, turbulent storm" that brings us on"the same boat." He also expressed gratitude for the"ordinary people ... who do not appear in newspaper and magazine headlines" – doctors, nurses, grocery store workers and cleaners, among other essential employees working at the frontline of the pandemic.This mass provides an example of how the pope will celebrate many of the Catholic Church's largest amid this crisis. He will celebrate Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Easter vigil and Easter Sunday at the basilica's central altar.
Italy’s outbreak includes the world’s highest number of deaths for a single nation. The Vatican has four confirmed cases.
