VATICAN CITY - Pope Francis said the coronavirus had put everyone “in the same boat” as he held a dramatic, solitary prayer service in St. Peter’s Square on Friday, urging the world to see the crisis as a test of solidarity and a reminder of basic values.
“It has taken over our lives, filling everything with a deafening silence and a distressing void that stops everything as it passes by; we feel it in the air...We find ourselves afraid and lost,” he said. Francis walked alone in the rain to a white canopy on the steps of the basilica and spoke sitting alone before a square where he normally draws tens of thousands of people but is now closed because of the pandemic.
He praised doctors, nurses, supermarket employees, cleaners, care givers, transport workers, police, and volunteers, saying they, and not the world’s rich and famous, were “writing the decisive events of our time”.
Only if you can prove there’s really god to save people not asking Sunday mass money , coz many people already lost the meaning of praying when not a single miracle from god we can see or neither you , facts right ?
I joint my Faith with every true believers and ask GOD for divine intervention of this pandemic, JESUS only you can deliver.
Even now when many are praying and put again their hope in god our saviour the Holy Spirit, the pope, a empty church he have.
May the lord guide and protect you Holy Father.
Oh look. It's Satan in white sheep's clothing.
I would never wish to be in the same boat as this person.
Bless God Love him ✝️
Stunning scene.
KayBurley Deluded man in a white coat
I'm sure he is enjoying not having to touch people. He never liked it judging by recent videos.
KayBurley Hmmmm where is god now? Oh yeah, still watching as innocent people continue to die without divine intervention. Get on with your lives people, only you can do it yourself
We are not in the same boat. His boat is full of unicorns and bullshit stories.
Yeah, it was quite pathetic.
Well, that went downhill very quickly, all he did was cough once.
KayBurley We are not in the same boat. Some of us have massive luxury yachts to ride out the storm, most of us have a rubber dinghy full of holes and are about to enter shark infested waters. We know that the Pope will be in his yacht.
How very GoT
How much money has the church donated to help with Covid-19? Nothing!!
Covers for pedopriests and pedobishops, changes the Lord's prayer, ok the display statue of moloch at the vatican and sit infront of this. Ya, he's no man of God, least not the God that Christians worship.👹
The Pope isn't interacting closely with 100 people a day for minimum wage on a supermarket checkout
There is no god
No ones Listning Pal
KayBurley Poignant
so when or if he get sick does he go to the hospital or church ?
Dude... if you have to read an already written prayer, pffffff May you all fakes be removed by our Creator soon!!! Give back the stolen wealth you hoard in banks and feed and heal the people. There is even a movie with Anthony Quinn as a Pope better than all of you put together.
Theatrics! An institution known for siphoning the wealth of poor people from cities and villages worldwide Hoarding it in banks, scandals, unceasing child abuse pedophilia. Inquisition and torture of dissidents, political coup d'etats, assassinations and satanism and hiding Truth
Historic
What a POS!

God Bless us all.❤️🙏
KayBurley Yeah God will save us 🙄 all we need to do is prey, light candles and clap We will be fine 😂😂😂😂
KayBurley At least he doesn’t have to shy away from shaking hands anymore! 🙁
The same boat you say? Is that right?
You, Pope Francis 👿is caught up on the turbulent storm! No! We are NOT on the same boat as you!
KayBurley VERY moving!
They know
KayBurley Pontifex rkmbelurmath churchofengland Yes Father, We are in the same boat...and I realised for quite some time that we are one shared humanity of diverse people sharing a single common destiny on our lonely living planet revolving in space as a beacon of hope. We are that hope
Wtf is happening in the world
Why was the Pope limping?
May God Almighty show the world HIS mercy. Through Christ Jesus. Amen
🙏🏼
Imagine if the pope was able to speak directly to God.
Drama queen
CatzCatems I don’t want to be on a boat with pedos and their enablers. K thnx
where are your Gods when you desperately need them?
'Walk on, walk on With hope in your heart ..'
I am an atheist, but I truly appreciate his heart-felt words at this time.
I don’t see anyone in that boat with him. What has he done for Italy to help stem the death of the country? Has he gave money, food, medical supplies, or offered up that ENTIRE CITY to help the sick. You know, like Jesus Christ would expect.

federallamm All due respect to his holiness Pontifex VaticanNews your boat has a giant wall and plenty of supplies and food. That is not the same boat the people of Italy and the rest of the world are in. Please choose your words more carefully
I bet the choir boys will be happy.
Ha caído, ha caído la gran Babilonia!!! Hurra!!
Confirmed cases in USA has surpassed that of China and Italy Countries with confirmed cases of the coronavirus 👇 Covid19usa italystaystrong
The Pope saying, 'We are in the same boat' doesn't seem like something a Pope should say 🤔
Thumbs up
To no result.
Very dramatic. Opera like.
Blame it on Chinese_Virus WuhanCoronaVirus
May God bless human beings!
Pontif's blessings and prayers will sooth the situation. 🙏
Not catholic, but this brings tears to my eyes. (And horribly disappointed in all the people being hateful here-believe what you want, allow others to do the same)
If this is the last recorded memory of the Vatican, and all that it has done to the world, I think it's fitting.
But as with the black death it ain't gonna help.
Hopefully not the same cruise boat...😳
All for looks
That's hope
May God bless the world
A pantomime. Nothing more. The coronavirus is NOT listening. Mass religious gatherings were one of the leading causes of the spread.
Hard to believe people can keep bowing to thin air in this day and age.
🙏 Amen
Those last two paragraphs about a pre-Christian symbol... Jeremiah 10:3, 8
Why VIC tests less than QLD?
Time to use the 65 billion Euros they have in the Vatican save and help the poor poor people. 🤔 Don't say again that they only have cash to pay pedofile victim's.
At least he's doing his job.
How's he able to withstand all that weight though!? 😲
What a great man of peace
And Pat Robertson ,..I had my hand to the Television screen like you said to do but nothing !
Wow. The costumes.
Yay, we are all going to be saved by God. Said no one with half a brain.
Socialist Communist Pope. Need another one in Italy
Can you just donate money to hospitals? That would be good for people.
