Abstract

“My tweet Lord: Pope joins Twitter and launches new Vatican
website,” was one of the reports appeared in The Guardian on 29 June
2011. The Pope’s first tweet read: “Dear Friends, I just launched
News.va. Praised be our Lord Jesus Christ! With my prayers and
blessings, Benedictus XVI.” The news that Pope Benedict XVI tweeted
for the first time, announcing the launch of a Vatican information portal,
was widely reported by the media around the globe. This new step is
perceived as another attempt from the part of the Church to make use of
the possibilities offered by the developments in communication
technology in its evangelizing mission.
