El primer cumpleaños como Papa: Hoy Papa Francisco celebra su 77 cumpleaños. Sin embargo, no habrá celebraciones en el Vaticano porque la tradición católica no conmemora cumpleaños, sino la fiesta del santo. El Día del santo del Papa es aún un día de descanso en el Vaticano. Se celebra de acuerdo con el nombre de bautismo del Santo Padre, en la fiesta de San Jorge.
