Pope Francis, despite being in the hospital, made sure to send a message to the thousands of believers praying for his health. In a short but touching address, recorded in Spanish, the Pope expressed his deep gratitude.

"I thank you with all my heart for the prayers you offer for my health from [St. Peter’s] Square. I accompany you from here. May God bless you, and may the Virgin protect you. Thank you."

This message was played in St. Peter’s Square at the beginning of the Rosary prayer on Thursday evening at 9 p.m. Rome time. The Rosary was led by Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, Pro-prefect of the Dicastery for the Institutes of Consecrated Life and the Societies of Apostolic Life.

A Wave of Prayers for the Pope

Since Monday, February 24, thousands of faithful, along with cardinals residing in Rome, members of the Roman Curia, and the Diocese of Rome, have been gathering in St. Peter’s Square to pray for Pope Francis. Their united prayers have been a source of strength and encouragement for the Holy Father as he continues treatment for pneumonia at Gemelli Hospital.

His message, though brief, carried a powerful sentiment—one of faith, gratitude, and a reminder that even from a hospital bed, he remains spiritually present with the faithful. The Pope's words also reflect his unwavering trust in God and the Virgin Mary, as well as his deep appreciation for the love and support he has received.

For those who continue to pray for his recovery, this message serves as a beautiful acknowledgment of their faith and devotion. As the Pope himself said, "I accompany you from here."
