Pope gets his YouTube Channel

Sunday, January 25th, 2009

The Vatican has received much praise from the international media (BBC, Inquirer of the Philippines, LA Times, Time Magazine, CNN Int. to list a few) with the launch of their You Tube channel this last week (on the 23rd).

Currently it only holds just over a dozen videos (mostly address by Pope Benedict XV). This is a great way for them to reach and interact with an audience that has been, in my opinion, widely ignored by the Church as a whole (Protestant and Catholic).

Make sure to swing on over to their page and give it a once over, maybe watch a video or two. I must also comment that they are doing this page in four languages (Italian, English, Spanish, and Dutch).
