The Pope wants social media to be used by Catholics as a way of spreading the word of God. In his 2013 World Communications Day message the pontiff's said Twitter and Facebook could be used as "portals of truth and faith" in increasingly secular times.
The speech coincided with the launch of 'The Pope App', a downloadable program that streams live footage of the pontiff's speaking events and Vatican news onto smartphones.
Theologian and Twitter fan, Vicky Beeching told Premier's News Hour she welcomes the idea:
