Pope to greet crowd at Gemelli on Sunday

By Vatican News

On Saturday morning, the Holy See Press Office announced the Pope is planning to greet the crowd outside Rome’s Gemelli hospital and give his blessing on Sunday, March 23, shortly after 12pm. The statement said the text of the Angelus will be shared as it has been the last few weeks.

While the doctors have not yet given any indication as to when the Pope would be discharged from the hospital, this greeting on Sunday would be the first appearance since he was hospitalized on February 14. This news comes after the most recent health update shared Pope Francis’ continued improvements both in his respiratory and motor functions.

Depsite being in the hospital for the last five weeks, the Pope has continued to work, sending messages to pilgrim groups, concelebrating Mass, and even sending a voice message on March 6 to thank everyone for their testimonies of love and solidarity.
