Detailed explanation-1: -The Response of Religion and Medicine In Christian Europe, the Roman Catholic Church explained the plague as God’s punishing the sins of the people. The church called for people to pray, and it organized religious marches, pleading to God to stop the “pestilence.”
Detailed explanation-2: -Priests cared for the sick, administered last rites, and did the best they could with the knowledge they had at the time. Some priests fled their posts, but many continued ministering, baptizing, marrying, burying, and attending to the sick and dying. An estimated 40% of priests died from the Black Death.
Detailed explanation-3: -Saint Raphael the Archangel is the patron saint of healing.
Detailed explanation-4: -He preached many sermons encouraging people to repent and confess during these dark times, and he even wrote a special Mass to address the plague. And this Mass circulated and was sung throughout Europe-far beyond Avignon-and indeed, was still in use by the Roman Catholic Church into the 20th century.
