As you send out your Christmas cards this year, don’t forget the pope! The Vatican Council for Social Communication’s website has now made it possible to send an electronic Christmas card to the holy father. You can attach pictures to the card and include a personal message:
“Dear Pope Benedict,
Warmest holiday wishes! Well, it’s been quite a year for the Duke family . . . ”
Or perhaps I’ll just stick with one of the four electronic Christmas cards that P2Y has available for you to send to all of your friends with a picture of Pope Benedict and his Christmas greeting.
