Pope Francis did not read the homily at the end of the Gospel of the Palm Sunday mass.
Introducing the rites of the celebration, he showed a somewhat tired voice.
At the end of the reading of the Gospel there was a moment of silence, then directly the 'Creed' without the Pope's homily.
In St. Peter's Square, for the first event of Holy Week, approximately 25 thousand faithful are present.
