Pope Francis Easter Vigil at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City

Pope Francis held solemn Easter vigil in Vatican City at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican city. Saturday’s service came after Francis presided over the evocative torch-lit Good Friday procession at Rome’s Colosseum, where he repeatedly denounced the shame of the blood spilled by innocent children, women and migrants in the world’s conflicts, shipwrecks and other tragedies. ON Sunday, he celebrates the Easter mass in flower-filled St Peter’s Square.
