Vatican having the Easter from hell
READ MORE
Pope Francis has presided over solemn Good Friday services amid heightened security at Rome’s Colosseum for the Via Crucis procession, and a new communications controversy at home over the existence of hell.
Wearing his white coat to guard against the night-time chill, Francis listened intently along with some 20,000 faithful as the meditations re-enacting Christ’s crucifixion were read out in the torch-lit Colosseum.
At the end, he delivered a meditation of his own, denouncing those who seek power, money and conflict, and prayed the Catholic Church will always be an “arc of salvation, a source of certainty and truth”.
The Good Friday procession, the seminal event in Christianity leading to Christ’s resurrection celebrated on Easter Sunday, also coincided with a new communications controversy in the Vatican over the Pope’s reported assertion that hell doesn’t exist.
