Quick Glance: Pope Washes Feet of 12 Women at Rome Prison
  • Pope Francis washed and kissed the feet of 12 female inmates at a Rome prison during a Holy Thursday ritual to emphasize his calling of service and humility.

  • He revolutionized the foot-washing ritual for the Vatican by insisting, since his first Holy Thursday as pope in 2013, on having women and people of other faiths among the 12 participants.

  • Francis appeared in good shape at the prison, even after presiding over a long Mass earlier in the day in St. Peter’s Basilica. He was also energized by his visit to the Rebibbia prison, where he was given a basket of vegetables grown in the prison garden as well as two liturgical stoles.

  • Despite the conclusion of Holy Thursday events, Francis has a lot to do in the upcoming days that will test his stamina, including the nighttime Way of the Cross procession at the Colosseum on Friday.

  • These resignations are the latest in a series of public protests against the Biden administration's support for Israel, leading to internal turmoil within the US State Department.
