accounts for the Pope, giving Pope Benedict XVI the opportunity to
tweet in English (via @Pontifex ) and in seven other major languages.
The day these accounts were launched, Pope Benedict also invited the
world to send him questions about faith via #AskPontifex . He promised
to respond to some of these questions nine days later. And now,with
tens of thousands ofquestions in hand, @pontifex has answered: Today,
the Pope sent his first Tweet during a live event at the Vatican
attended by thousands.

This Tweet was immediately retweeted thousands of times, and shortly
afterwards @pontifex and its seven related language accounts began
responding to several questions tweeted in the past week. The first
question, asked by Spanish journalist @jcalderero in Madrid, asked:
Benedict XVI
@ PontifexFollow

By speaking with Jesus in prayer, listening to what he tells you in

rock upon which we build our lives and his love is always faithful

Any suggestions on how to be more prayerful when we are so busy with
the demands of work, families and the world?
