From Sister Mary Ann Walsh with the USCCB<\/a><\/strong> in Rome:<\/p>\n

Pope Francis\u2019 style will make work harder for journalists. He ad libs or even rejects entirely speeches written for him. That means the Vatican cannot always distribute speeches ahead of time under embargo. Today in his meeting with the cardinals he ad libbed so much the Vatican had to do some hurry up work. The press office got the Italian text out a while after he delivered his address but the text in other languages were slated to come later.<\/p>\n

The pope greeted each of the cardinals personally today. Cardinal Wilfrid Napier of Durban, South Africa gave him a yellow band bracelet. An official reached to take it from him, but he instead put it on. Still do not know what the wristband signifies but someone called it a \u201cfaith bracelet.\u201d<\/p>\n

He greeted the cardinals as \u201cmy brothers,\u201d another sign of what looks to be a down-to-earth relationship with the College of Cardinals.<\/p>\n

Don, Mar and I went to the media briefing at the alternative press center. Father Lombardi told a few anecdotes about the pope, who is still living at Domus Sanctae Marthae, a hotel inside the Vatican. He noted, for example, that he comes late for breakfast and so takes a seat wherever he can find one. No place of honor for him.<\/p>\n

Questions were wide-ranging. People sought details of Mass of installation. There will be separate sections for priests, for handicapped, for diplomats, etc. CNN wanted to know what number pope he is. Answer: he\u2019s 266th pope , the 265th successor to St. Peter. (I think the information was available elsewhere too.)<\/p>\n

This new bishop of Rome won\u2019t take possession of his church, the Basilica of St John Lateran, until after Easter so he\u2019ll celebrate Holy Thursday services at St. Peter\u2019s instead of St. John Lateran, the usual site for the pope\u2019s Holy Thursday service.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
