The Holy See published the first photograph of Pope Francis after a month hospitalized

The press office of the Holy See has published an image of Pope Francis in prayer, after concelebrating the Eucharist on the morning of this Sunday, March 16.

It is the first image that is published since its hospitalization at the Gemelli Hospital, where it has been admitted since February 14 due to respiratory problems.

After 72 hours without a medical part and only with some details provided by Vatican sources, the Vatican released a brief statement on Saturday in which it was explained that «the clinical conditions of the Holy Father remain stable, confirming the evolution highlighted in the last week.»

Likewise, it was reported «that high flow oxygen therapy continues, progressively reducing the need for non -invasive mechanical ventilation during the night.»

However, the medical part adds, «the Holy Father still requires hospital medical treatment, motor and respiratory physiotherapy,» they said, «this treatment shows additional and gradual improvements.»

In the Angelus text, the Pope did not forget to ask for prayers «for peace, especially in the countries wounded by war: in the martyred Ukraine, in Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, Myanmar, Sudan, Democratic Republic of the Congo.»

And he also urges to pray «for the Church, called to translate into concrete decisions the discernment that has been made in the recent Synod Assembly.»

This Saturday it was learned that the Pope approved from the Gemelli Hospital a calendar of meetings that will lead to an assembly of bishops and lay in the Vatican in October 2028 to give continuity and consolidate the ‘Synod of the Sinodality’ that was held in the past years to reform the Church.

Francisco looks forward calling this assembly in October 2028 to consolidate what has been done so far and without calling a new Synod.
