Last December, Pope Benedict XVI made history by becoming the first pope to tweet. After he stepped down earlier this year, the Vatican archived all of his tweets and a few weeks later Pope Francis took over the helm at the official pope handle, @Pontifex.

Unlike Pope Benedict, whose tweets were more sporadic, Pope Francis quickly settled into a pattern; he tweets once a day without fail — and rests on Sundays. He tweets about the same topics he speaks about: the importance of caring for those less fortunate than ourselves and what it means to live charitably.

Here’s a sampling.
