A convalescing Pope Francis appeared on the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica to celebrate Easter services on Sunday, as a cheering and emotional crowd of thousands gathered at the Vatican's St. Peters Square. The crowd erupted when the Pontiff, 88, appeared on his wheelchair, looking out over the square awash with daffodils and tulips. "Dear brothers and sisters, happy Easter," he said, waving and giving his blessing.
