Pope Sends Lenten Message on Twitter

Pope Benedict XVI is using his Twitter account to spread the Good Word during this Lent season.

 For the next 40 days, the pope will be sharing messages in various languages, including English, Spanish and German, through the Twitter account @Pope2YouVatican.


 The account is managed by the Pontifical Council for Social Communications.
It is using the Twitter handle in the pope's name to spread themes from the 2012 Lenten message, speeches and documents.

 The account has been in use since before Ash Wednesday this year, featuring messages and photos that date back into last year.

 The Pope has been experimenting with technology and social media since he sent his first tweet in June 2011.
