00:00U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance and Pope Francis exchanged Easter greetings at the Casa Santa Marta, where the pontiff is recovering from pneumonia.
00:11The meeting was held in an effort to reconcile relations between the Vatican and the Trump administration.
00:18Meanwhile, crowds gathered in St. Peter's Square for Easter Mass.
00:22Having to cut down on his workload because of his recovery, the Pope had delegated the celebration of the Mass to another cardinal.
00:29However, after the Mass ended, the pontiff appeared on the balcony of the St. Peter's Basilica, where he blessed the crowd.
00:36Buona Pascua!
00:40Pope Francis then also made a surprise appearance as he drove through the Piazza in his Popemobile, blessing thousands of people in the square.
00:49The scene used to be common in the past, but was unthinkable just a few weeks ago when the Pope was in the hospital.
