Be inspired by the Holy Father of many firsts-through his own words!
As the first pope to be a member of the Jesuit religious order, to come from Latin America, and to take the papal name in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi, Pope Francis made history. We watched on as he bowed from the balcony in Saint Peter’s Square, chose to reside in the Vatican guesthouse rather than the Papal Palace, hugged a disabled boy at Easter Mass, and washed the feet of inmates at a juvenile detention center during Holy Week. From these publicized events, we are already acquainted with his humility, his simplicity, and his closeness to the people. But, who was Pope Francis before he became pope, when he was an archbishop and cardinal of Buenos Aires?
