Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the seventy-six year old Archbishop of Buenos Aries, has been elected Pope and he shall take the name Francis the First during his reign.
Great Choice. First from Latin America. First to take the name Francis. First Jesuit. The Holy Spirit has guided the princes of the Church to select a representative from a wider world.Let the Church assume its Universal nature in greater measure.It was touching to see the Pontiff bowing his head and asking the crowds to pray for him. May this gift of humility open doors and minds and hearts for the new pope. Dr Abraham Joseph, Trivandrum India
