The Vatican Inauguration for Pope Francis or Padre Jorge as he is lovingly referred to in his homeland of Argentina, will be held March 19, the Feast of St. Joseph, at 9:30 a.m. Rome time, according to News. VA, March 13.
Since the announcement of Pope Francis was made yesterday, false news reports, Facebook profiles and Twitter accounts were popping up in His Holiness’ name. It should be mentioned at this time that the only credible information comes straight from the Vatican using or citing these news sources News.va, Vatican Radio, L'Osservatore Romano, Vatican Information Service, Fides Agency, The Holy See Press Office and CTV-Centro Televisivo Vaticano.
The official Twitter accounts of Pope Francis haven’t changed names, with the profiles remaining intact: English @Pontifex, Latin @Pontifex, Arabic @Pontifex_ar, French @Pontifex_fr, German @Pontifex_de, Italian @Pontifex_it, Polish @Pontifex_pl, Portugese @Pontifex_pt, and Spanish @Pontifex_es.
The Mass for the Inauguration of the Petrine Ministry will occur on Tuesday, March 19 in St. Peter’s Square and a Mass for the closure of the Papal Conclave is being held today in the Sistine Chapel.
Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, an Argentine national born of Italian parents, is of the Jesuit Order, whose duty is to serve others, taking the name Francis presumably from St. Francis of Assisi, who as legend has it was called by Jesus to repair His house, positive decisions by the Papal Conclave and the new Pontiff for the path the Vatican plans to take for the fate of the Catholic Church.
