Pope Francis Joins Instagram: “pray for me” - Pontiff Says

The Catholic pontiff who joined Instagram a few hours ago already has over 373,000 followers. He made a post where he asked people to pray for him in different languages.
Despite once claiming to be a technological dinosaur, Pope Francis has expanded his social media presence by joining Instagram, launching the new account with a picture of himself knelt in worship alongside the caption “pray for me”.

Using the moniker Franciscus, the pope has joined the photo-sharing app to mark the third anniversary of his inauguration as the leader of the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics. He is already a well-established social media user, tweeting regularly under the handle @Pontifex to more than 27 million followers across several accounts in different languages.
