Pope performs Holy Thursday foot-washing ritual at Rome youth prison.
TL;DR Summary
Pope Francis washed and dried the feet of a dozen residents of a Rome juvenile prison in a Holy Thursday ritual symbolizing humility, assuring them of their dignity and telling them “any of us” can fall into sin. The Casal del Marmo facility on the outskirts of Rome is the same juvenile prison where Francis performed the first feet-washing ritual of his papacy, demonstrating his belief that the Catholic Church should give attention to people living on society's margins.
