Pope Francis Breaks Tradition

Pope Francis Breaks Tradition

Amid health challenges, Pope Francis conducted a ceremony at Rebibbia prison, where he exclusively washed the feet of 12 women, marking a departure from tradition. Seated in his wheelchair, the 87-year-old pontiff tenderly performed this act, mirroring Jesus Christ's humility before his crucifixion. Typically, he includes diverse groups in this ritual, making this instance notable. It highlights his commitment to serving marginalized communities, despite his own physical limitations.
