This summer, Pope Francis is taking an 8-week break from his liturgical schedule, with no public Masses planned from July 8 to September 1. As he prepares for the longest international trip of his pontificate in September, this break allows him to rest and rejuvenate. Notably, the 87-year-old pope will continue to lead the Sunday Angelus from the Apostolic Palace.
Despite this break, Pope Francis has been active, presiding over the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul and convening a consistory of cardinals. Upcoming travel plans include a pastoral visit to Trieste on July 7 and a two-week tour of Southeast Asia and Oceania in the fall, with stops in Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor, and Singapore.
