Pope
Francis uses tablet to illuminate Gubbio Christmas tree
(Vatican Radio) With the touch of a button and using a tablet,
Pope Francis on Sunday evening switched on a giant Christmas tree designed in
lights on a hillside above the Umbrian town of Gubbio in Italy. The lighting
ceremony came after he delivered a message via video link up from the Vatican.
The Pope was following
in the footsteps of Pope Benedict in 2011 and Italian President Giorgio
Napolitano.
The tree created in
one thousand coloured lights was recorded in the Guinness Book of Records in
1991 as being the largest Christmas tree in the world, measuring about 750
metres tall by 450 metres wide.
