Pope Francis on Sunday became the first person registered for next year’s World Youth Day festivities, using an iPad to sign up while addressing thousands of pilgrims and tourists in Saint Peter’s Square.
“Thanks to this electronic device, I signed up as a simple pilgrim,” Francis said, declaring himself the first person registered for the next edition of the Youth Day celebration while flanked by two Polish youths.
Nice.
He is not a simple pilgrim if he got to the head of the line. 🙂
The first shall be last, and the last shall be first. And the first to sign up with an iPad, will be the last to realize that when you say, “With this electronic device” you really date yourself … even more than being the pope does on it’s own.
