Rome – Savized Pope Francis appeared on the Balcony of St. Peter in order to celebrate Easter services on Sunday, as a fan and emotional pile thousands gathered on the Vatican St. Peter square.

The crowd broke out when Pontiff, 88, appeared on a wheelchair, looking over a square to scare with Narten and Tulips.

“Dear brothers and sisters, happy Easter,” he said, waved and gave his blessing.

In the days leading to Easter, Vatican did not confirm whether the Pope would attend the mass, saying it would be depending on his health, underlining Francis’s permanent fragile and emergency to many Catholic believers.

Francis held a short private meeting on Sunday morning with JD Vance vice president, which is Catholic. The meeting lasted a few minutes, the Vatican said, long enough to exchange Easter wishes.

Last week, Francis was publicly taken over by Trump administration for his immigration burst and to reduce international aid.

Pontiff did not lead the east-mass, with Cardinal Angelo Comastrija, retired Army Basilica of St. Peter, who took his place and delivering a homid that Francis prepared.

But after the mass ended, the Pope appeared with the turbulent applause because the military band was kicked out the round of the Holy Council and the Italian anthem. Diego Ravelli, a master ceremony, then delivered the Papuska address of Urbi et Orbi.

During the address Francis, he was strongly attracted to peace around the world, Especially in Gaza, where he said the “terrible conflict continues to create death and destruction” and called on the recircciliaric fire and the release of all hostages.

Pontif offered a prayer of Christian communities in Ukraine, Israel, Lebanon and Syria, and he mentioned the liquid conflict and suffering in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Sudan, the southern Sudan, Myanmar, African regions, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

“I would like to all hope again and revive my trust in others, including those who are different from us, or who come from distant countries, bringing incompetent customs, ways of life and ideas,” said in a statement. “We are all the children of God!”

After the Francis service, he took to his open popemobil to greet the crowds on the square, blessing babies and children while driving.

Easter week is the most important in the Catholic calendar, but this year, Pope Francis’s health test after spending more than five weeks in Rome, Gemelli hospital in both lungs, on the most serious health crisis of 12 years.

According to his doctors, his life was in danger twice in that period, including consideration of the completion of treatment. “We had to choose whether to stop and let go or execute forward and try everything,” said one of his doctors, Sergio Alfieri, shortly after the pope from the hospital.

Since then, Francis has made only short public performances, but they provided convincing signs of his recovery. He greeted the crowd in St. Peter’s square on the palm tree last weekend, and Sveto Thursday visited the Roman prison. He also used to meet with King Charles III and the Camilla Queen in the Vatican earlier in the month.

88-year-old Francis enters his fifth recovery week during which doctors advised him to avoid the crowd.

After Francis was released from the hospital in March, his medical team said that he would need further two months of rest after returning to Vatican, and his doctors said “a lot of time” would be completely healed.

Through his disease, the Vatican claimed that Francis continued to fulfill his duties despite being out of the public eye.

He significantly missed the Jubilee celebration of the Catholic Church, a significant tradition was held every 50 years for Remission sin, known as the Holy Year.

The Pope decreases the health caused by wild speculation about whether to withdraw the same as his predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI, he did in 2013. years.

But despite its current health fighting, there was no indication from the Vatican that the Pope intends to resign.
