Pope Francis offers a prayer to Mary upon his return to Rome
after his Apostolic Journey to Mozambique, Madagascar, and Mauritius.
By Vatican News
The papal plane touched down at Rome’s Ciampino airport in
the early evening on Tuesday.
As he does after all visits abroad, Pope Francis made his
way to the Basilica of St Mary Major to offer a prayer of thanksgiving for the
successful conlcusion of his Apostolic Journey to southern Africa.
Placing a bouquet of flowers before the ancient icon of
Maria Salus Populi Romani, the Pope paused for a moment to pray silently.
Then he returned by car to the Vatican for some much-needed
rest.
Pope Francis spent the last 6 days making his 31st Apostolic
Journey abroad, visiting Mozambique, Madagascar, and Mauritius.
