Pelo segundo ano consecutivo, as liturgias papais para a Semana Santa serão muito menores do que o normal devido à pandemia do coronavírus, com a Via Sacra, tradicionalmente realizada no Coliseu, transferida para a Praça de São Pedro.
No Domingo de Ramos de 28 de março, o Papa Francisco oferecerá missa na Basílica de São Pedro no Altar da Cadeira às 10h30, horário local.
O Papa presidirá também a Missa do Crisma, que ocorrerá no mesmo altar da basílica na manhã do dia 1º de abril, Quinta-feira Santa. Mas o papa não estará presente na Missa da Quinta-feira Santa da Ceia do Senhor do Vaticano. O cardeal Giovanni Battista Re, decano do Colégio Cardinalício, presidirá em seu lugar.
A Sexta-feira Santa no Vaticano incluirá tanto a liturgia papal da Paixão de Deus às 18 horas. e a Via-Sacra com o Papa Francisco às 21h. na Praça de São Pedro.
Este ano, o Papa Francisco escolheu um grupo de escoteiros da Itália central e crianças de uma paróquia romana para preparar as meditações para a Via Sacra deste ano.
O papa oferecerá a Missa da Vigília Pascal em 3 de abril na Basílica de São Pedro às 19h30. e também celebrará a Missa do Domingo de Páscoa às 10 horas, após a qual oferecerá a tradicional Bênção Urbi et Orbi.
Le Vatican a publié le programme du Pape François pour la Semaine Sainte au Vatican cette année.
Pour la deuxième année consécutive, les liturgies papales pour la Semaine Sainte seront beaucoup plus petites que d’habitude en raison de la pandémie de coronavirus, avec le chemin de croix, traditionnellement tenu au Colisée, déplacé à la place sur la place Saint-Pierre.
Le dimanche des Rameaux, le 28 mars, le pape François offrira la messe dans la basilique Saint-Pierre à l’autel de la chaire à 10h30, heure locale.
Le pape présidera également la messe chrismale, qui aura lieu au même autel dans la basilique le matin du 1er avril, jeudi saint. Mais le pape ne sera pas présent à la messe du jeudi saint du Vatican du Dîner du Seigneur. Le cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, le doyen du Collège des cardinaux, présidera à la place.
Le Vendredi saint au Vatican comprendra à la fois la liturgie papale de la Passion du Seigneur à 18 heures. et le chemin de croix avec le pape François à 21 h. sur la place Saint-Pierre.
Cette année, le pape François a choisi un groupe de scouts du centre de l’Italie et des enfants d’une paroisse romaine pour préparer les méditations du chemin de croix de cette année.
Le pape offrira la messe de la veillée pascale le 3 avril dans la basilique Saint-Pierre à 19h30. et célébrera également la messe du dimanche de Pâques à 10 heures, après quoi il offrira la traditionnelle bénédiction Urbi et Orbi.
The Vatican has published Pope Francis’ schedule for Holy Week at the Vatican this year.
For the second year in a row, the papal liturgies for Holy Week will be much smaller than usual due to the coronavirus pandemic, with the Way of the Cross, traditionally held at the Colosseum, moved to St. Peter’s Square instead.
On Palm Sunday on March 28, Pope Francis will offer Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica at the Altar of the Chair at 10:30 a.m. local time.
The pope will also preside over the Chrism Mass, which will occur at the same altar in the basilica on the morning of April 1, Holy Thursday. But the pope will not be present at the Vatican’s Holy Thursday Mass of the Lord’s Supper. Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, the Dean of the College of Cardinals, will preside instead.
Good Friday at the Vatican will include both the papal liturgy of the Passion of the Lord at 6 p.m. and the Stations of the Cross with Pope Francis at 9 p.m. in St. Peter’s Square.
This year Pope Francis chose a scouting group from central Italy and kids from a Roman parish to prepare the meditations for this year’s Way of the Cross.
The pope will offer the Easter Vigil Mass on April 3 in St. Peter’s Basilica at 7:30 p.m. and will also celebrate the Easter Sunday Mass at 10 a.m. after which he will offer the traditional Urbi et Orbi blessing.
