@mredding All of the first popes lack the suffix (Peter, Linus, etc) since they haven’t been repeated thus no need.

@mredding Traditionally, it should just be “Francis”. History typically adds the “I” when another pope takes the time.

@AnnaLavergne he has a degree in chemistry! @Jfrosinski

RT @roccopalmo: POPE FRANCIS I!

Normal conditions still apply (reception of Eucharist, sacramental confession, prayers for the pope’s intentions).
