Pope cancels meeting for "slight indisposition" 0:33
(CNN) - Pope Francis canceled his official meetings on Friday, the Vatican announced in a statement.
No reason was given for the cancellation and the Vatican only said the meetings were "postponed."
Informal meetings of the pontiff on Friday will proceed normally, the Vatican said, adding that the pope celebrated Mass at his residence on Friday morning and then greeted the participants.
On Thursday, the Vatican spokesman said the Pope was suffering from a "mild ailment" that forced him to miss an event at the Church of St. John Lateran in Rome.
