CWN Editor's Note: Pope Francis met on November 11 with workers of the Fabbrica di San Pietro, the agency responsible for the maintenance of the Vatican basilica.

In his remarks to the group the Pontiff encouraged the use of modern technological means to make available the treasures of the Vatican, cautioning however that these methods should be employed in a “proper and constructive way, as they certainly hold potential but are also ambivalent.” He emphasized that their goal should be to present the faith, while guarding against the attitude that “the frame becomes more important than the picture.”
