Pope Francis on Monday offered well-wishes to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump in a traditional message sent ahead of the presidential inauguration ceremony in Washington.

Pope Francis on Jan. 19 denounced President Donald Trump's provisional plans to carry out a massive deportation of migrants as a "disgrace."

Francis' prayer for the 47th president followed a Sunday interview with Italian media in which he called Trump's proposed immigration policy 'a disgrace.'

Pope Francis sent “cordial greetings” and “assurance of my prayers” to Donald J. Trump on Jan. 20, the day of his inauguration as the 47th president of the United States.

In a Sunday television interview, Pope Francis emphasized that hope and forgiveness are at the root of the 2025 Jubilee.

Pope Francis on Sunday criticized President-elect Donald Trump's reported plan to sharply intensify immigration enforcement actions across the U.S. in the days after his inauguration.

The Holy Father expressed hope that under Trump’s leadership, the American people would “prosper and always strive to build a more just society.”

The pope’s comments provided the latest indication of a potential rekindling of frictions between the Vatican and the next Trump White House.

Pope Francis falls and hurts his arm, Vatican says, weeks after another fall resulted in a bad bruise on his chin.

Pope Francis didn’t break his arm, but a sling was put on as a precaution, the Vatican spokesman said in a statement.

Pope Francis has fallen over and injured his right arm but did not suffer any broken bones, the Vatican says. In a statement, the Holy See press office said that due to a fall Thursday morning in the Casa Santa Marta, the pope’s residence, the 88-year-old pontiff “suffered a contusion to his right forearm, without fracture.”
