Have you ever wanted to send a letter to the Pope? Today’s post from ChurchPop.com tells you how!
The website for the US Embassy to the Holy See recommends that mail for Pope Francis be sent to this address:
His Holiness, Pope Francis
Apostolic Palace
00120 Vatican City
Notice that neither “Italy” nor “Rome” are a part of the address since Vatican City is its own country.
Since, unlike previous popes, Pope Francis is living in Casa Santa Martha instead of the papal apartment, another address you can try is this:
His Holiness, Pope Francis
Saint Martha House
00120 Città del Vaticano, Vatican City
In both cases, be sure to have the correct postage. If you’re unsure of what you need, ask your local post office. If you’re mailing from the United States, you can use this online calculator to estimate the needed postage.
