Pope Francis took a fall as he arrived for Holy Mass at Poland's holiest shrine of Jasna Gora on Thursday.

Francis, 79, was walking toward an altar when he missed a step and fell to the ground. A group of other priests raced to assist the pontiff, who got back up on his feet quickly.

The mass proceeded as planned and the pope delivered a sermon before thousands in the southern city of Czestochowa.
