During Palm Sunday, Pope Francis made a notable public appearance in St. Peter's Square, showcasing his recovery from a recent illness. At 88, he confirmed his role as a moral authority advocating for peace, particularly focusing on the Palestinian issue amid escalating violence in Gaza. His brief address included well-wishes for Holy Week, accompanied by a heartfelt homily that emphasized the responsibility to remember those suffering from violence and hatred worldwide. The pope remains a crucial voice for compassion in difficult times, undeterred by adversity.
"When we see the crowds of people forced by hatred and violence to walk the road to Calvary, let us recall that God has redeemed this road..."
"Good Palm Sunday, and a good Holy Week!" he announced, before offering individual greetings and prayers to gathered nuns, priests, and laypeople.
