Jorge Mario Bergoglio widely otherwise known as
Pope Francis has been named as TIME
Magazine's 'Person of the Year' for 2013.
'He took the name of a humble saint and then
called for a church of healing. The first non-
European pope in 1,200 years is poised to
transform a place that measures change by the
century', contributing writers Howard Chua-
Eoan and Elizabeth Dias say of the 76-year-old.
Francis is the first Jesuit pope, the first pope from
the Americas, the first from the Southern
Hemisphere and the first non-European Pope since
Pope Gregory III.
He recently revealed that before the Jesuits, he
worked as a bar bouncer.
