At 7:00 this morning, on the solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Pope went to Piazza di Spagna for a private act of veneration of Mary Immaculate.
“With the first light of dawn, in the rain, he placed a bouquet of white roses at the base of the column where the statue of the Virgin is located and he turned to her in prayer, so that she would look with love at Rome and its inhabitants, entrusting to all those in this city and in the world who suffer from diseases and discouragement.
This was announced by the director of the Vatican Press Office, Matteo Bruni.
“Shortly before 7.15 in the morning, Pope Francis left the Piazza di Spagna and arrived at Santa Maria Maggiore, where he prayed in front of the icon of Maria Salus Popoli Romani and celebrated mass in the Chapel of the Nativity. Then he returned to the Vatican, “he added.
