Pope Francis kisses and washes the legs of Muslims Hindu and Christians Refugees in Rome

Peace tolerance and solidarity is all we as humans to live on this earth are some of the attribute which Pope Francis emphasises on Thursday evening Rome as he washes the feet of Muslims Hindu and Christians immigrants to make the Easter week as we remember christ selfless scarifie for humankind.

Pope Francis called for an end to religious intolerance especially between Christians and Muslim and for peace to be our number one priority and no religion should be labelled as evil especially after the attack at the Brussels airport on Tuesday which left 30 people dead.

The mass which took at Castelnuovo di Porto in Rome is a shelter for homeless asylum seekers and with more than 892 people in attendance and saw the tradition of the Vatican been changed for the first time in the Catholic Church. Feet washing is a ritual which is normally  performed on 12 men mostly priest just as Jesus did but saw only men in attendance in the Catholic Church but Francis had 4 women in attendance and and 8 refugees including of all different religious background and nationality. The migrants were left crying as the pour holy water wiped and kiss them just as Jesus did with this disciples.
