ÐÓMAPµ¼º½ to recite Angelus from residence as health improves

As ÐÓMAPµ¼º½ Francis' health continues to improve as he recovers from bronchitis, he will recite the Sunday Angelus prayer from his residence at the Casa Santa Marta, joining the faithful in a live broadcast.

The Director of the Holy See Press Office, Matteo Bruni, provided an update on the health conditions of ÐÓMAPµ¼º½ Francis on Saturday, stating that they are "improving."

He has no fever and is continuing his prescribed antibiotic therapy.

ÐÓMAPµ¼º½ Francis has been recovering from pulmonary inflammation for a week, leading to significant adjustments in his schedule, notably the cancellation of his Apostolic Journey to Dubai for the COP28 summit.

Earlier on Saturday, Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Parolin delivered the ÐÓMAPµ¼º½'s speech to delegates at the climate summit in Dubai.

"To avoid exposing himself to temperature fluctuations, tomorrow morning ÐÓMAPµ¼º½ Francis will recite the Angelus via a connection from Casa Santa Marta," according to Mr. Bruni. "The prayer will be broadcast live on television and on the screens in St. Peter's Square by Vatican Media. It will also be available for streaming on the Vatican News website."

The ÐÓMAPµ¼º½ held his most recent Angelus prayer last Sunday in a similar manner, when he appeared seated alongside Msgr. Paolo Braida, an official at the Secretariat of State, who read the meditation, appeals, and greetings on the ÐÓMAPµ¼º½'s behalf.
