Habemus Papam!

VATICAN CITY (Catholic Online): Cardinal has been elected as the new pope, Holy Father of
the Roman Catholic Church! He will now be known as Pope Francis!

Bergoglio was the cardinal Archbishop of Buenos
Aries, Argentina.

The new pope was elected after just 2 days of voting
by the cardinals, which is considered fast for the modern Church.

St.
Peter's Square is packed and cheery, yet there is a sense of reservation and
discipline as thousands of people are packed together in the square. There
remains a sense of awe and a sense of reverence at this most solemn and holy
moment.

Few men in modern times want to be pope. The
massive responsibility of serving as the spiritual leader of 1.2 billion people
and constant demands of the work are hard on both the mind and body.


However, as Catholics we understand that popes are called forth by God
and any man who holds the title and responsibility of office is also buoyed and
inspired by the Holy Spirit in the work they do.
