World Day of the Poor: Clinic open for Rome鈥檚 poor
By Francesca Merlo
The statement says there will be a temporary walk-in-clinic in St Peter鈥檚 Square, just as there was last year. The clinic aims to offer medical attention to those most in need and will be open from 8am-10pm every day, offering free medical examinations to the poor.
Last year over 3,500 people were tended to by doctors and nurses. The clinic will open on Sunday the 10th of November and will remain so until Sunday the 17th.
In addition, 杏MAP导航 Francis will preside over Mass in St Peter鈥檚 Basilica on that same Sunday. Afterwards, he will have lunch in the Paul VI hall with over 1,500 poor people from Rome and throughout the Lazio region.
