The Holy Father celebrated the Sacrament of Reconciliation with 16 teenage boys and girls gathered in Saint Peter's Square for the Jubilee for Teens.
More than 150 priests were present in the Square to hear confessions.
As part of the Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy, this weekend's Jubilee of Teens, which focuses on the theme: Growing merciful as the Father, has gathered 70,000 teens from Italy and all other parts of the world who have come in pilgrimage to Saint Peter's Square, to enter the Holy Door, to celebrate Confession at various stations around the colonnade.
Later tonight, they will travel To Rome's Olympic Stadium, where they will receive a video message prepared by the Holy Father.
Tomorrow morning, they will return to Saint Peter's Square for a Mass which will be presided over by the Holy Father.
