Pope Francis presides at Good Friday Mass at St. Peter's Basilica. The Pope, apparently recovered, then visited the main prison in Rome. Where he performed the ritual of washing the feet of female prisoners as a symbol of humility and service. In a prison in Rome, women sat on stools on a raised platform so that the Pope could easily conduct the ceremony from a wheelchair. When Francis washed the women's feet they cried. The Pope slowly poured water on the prisoners' feet and wiped them with a small towel. Then the ritual was completed by kissing each foot. During this time, he looked at the women prisoners and blessed them and gave them life.
Pope Francis recently suffered from a respiratory illness. But in the morning prayer meeting he looked healthy and addressed the people. In his address, Francis called on priests to desist from 'hypocrisy'.
He also told the priests that whatever advice they give to the common people, they should adopt the same in their spiritual life and there should be no difference between the two.
The Pope has a very busy schedule from Good Friday (March 29) to Easter (March 31). Various programs organized during this period will start from Thursday itself.
