“I think it will be an important sign because of what the pope represents, a spiritual leader in the world today, and for this voice, that everyone wants to hear, that says Christ still suffers,” Leo told reporters this week outside the papal retreat at Castel Gandolfo.
“I carry all of this suffering in my prayer.”

Inside the Colosseum, Leo began the procession flanked by two young people holding torches, and followed by clergy.
At the first station, marking the moment Jesus was condemned to death, the meditation prepared especially for Leo’s first Good Friday underlined that those with authority will have to answer to God for how they exercise their power.
“The power to judge; the power to start or end a war; the power to instil violence or peace; the power to fuel the desire for revenge, or for reconciliation,’’ read the meditation written by Reverend Francesco Patton, who was custodian of the Holy Land 2016-25, charged, among other things, with looking after sacred sites.
