The Vatican Dec. 13 published the list of Pope Francis’ liturgies for the Christmas season.

It was Pope Francis who suggested that this was the moment for the continent to revive the vision of Aparecida—only this time in a synodal way, with the people of God as the protagonist.

This week on “Inside the Vatican,” Gerard O'Connell speaks with Colleen Dulle about traveling with Pope Francis to Cyprus and Greece to “touch the wounds of humanity.”

From a vaccination clinic in the atrium of the Vatican audience hall to a visit to the ancient Iraqi city of Ur, Pope Francis demonstrated throughout 2021 what he means by seeing all people as brothers or sisters.

Pope Francis arrived at the foot of the statue of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception at 6:15 a.m. and prayed for “the miracle of cure for the many sick people” in today’s world.

Pope Francis revealed that a second meeting between him and the Russian Orthodox Patriarch of Moscow is under consideration. “It’s on the not-distant horizon,” he said.
