THE FAITHFUL OF THE PARISHES OF ROME MAY PARTICIPATE IN MASS WITH THE POPE AT SANCTAE MARTAE


Vatican City, 27 December 2013 (VIS) – From January 2014, the priests and 25 faithful from the various parishes in the diocese of Rome will be able to attend the Mass celebrated every day by Pope Francis in the Sanctae Martae Chapel, according to an announcement today by the director of the Holy See Press Office, Fr. Federico Lombardi S.J.

The parishes will be informed on how to apply by Cardinal Agostino Vallini, vicar of Rome. Since the Holy Father cannot visit all the parishes in his diocese at the moment, this initiative will ensure that at least some of the faithful of Rome will be able to participate in Mass celebrated by their bishop.
