Papal message will encourage priests to use communications technology
From Catholic Culture
Keeping a focus on the priesthood during this Year for Priests, the Vatican has announced that the theme for next year’s World Day for Social Communications will be: “The Priest and Pastoral Ministry in a Digital World.” The message will call attention to the many ways in which priests can use modern means of electronic communication to further their apostolic mission.
The Pope’s message for the World Day of Social Communications is released each year on January 24: the feast of St. Francis de Sales, the patron saint of journalists. This year’s papal message was directed more generally to the use of new technologies in the service of the Gospel.
