Pope prays before image of Mary, Salus Populi Romani
(Vatican Radio) As has become
customary, Pope Francis on Thursday paid a private visit to
the Basilica of St Mary Major on the eve of his Apostolic Voyage to Armenia.
The Holy Father prayed before
the image of the Blessed Virgin Mary, known as “Salus Populi Romani,”
(Protectress of the Roman People), asking the Blessed Virgin Mary to bless his
journey, according to a press release from Father Federico Lombardi, S.J., the
Director of the Holy See Press Office. Pope Francis left a bouquet of flowers,
in the colours of the Armenian flag, at the altar after his prayer.
Pope Francis departs Rome for
Armenia on Friday for a three day visit.
