News from Rome

Habemus papam! And a surprise choice, too.

A new face but an old guy who looks like Popes of the past.

Vatican II and conservative.

From the global south (here we're saying "from the Americas"!) and an Italian, too.

Even a Jesuit and a Francis!

Bergoglio-Francis comes in as the both-and Pope. Let's hope it's a reconciling papacy.
