The Pope announced that on Friday, March 27, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time,
in front of St. Peter's Basilica, he will preside over a moment of
prayer for the world during the COVID-19 pandemic. You can particpate
via the Vatican News website. The prayer will include readings
from the Scriptures, prayers of supplication, and adoration of the
Blessed Sacrament. It will conclude with Pope Francis giving the urbi
et orbi (to the city and to the world) blessing, with the possibility
of gaining a plenary indulgence for all those who listen to it live
through the various forms of communication. The urbi et orbi blessing
usually happens on Christmas and Easter.
