Pope Francis |
Pope Francis was once a bouncer at nightclub
Pope Francis has revealed he once made money by kicking
people out of clubs as a bouncer.
During a visit to a parish church in Rome at the weekend,
Pope Francis got chatty about his credentials.
According to news.com.au, the Vatican newspaper,
L'Osservatore Romano, reported that the pope told a group of parishioners at
the church of San Cirillo Alessandrino about his earlier jobs.
The pope's earlier days jobs also included sweeping floors
and running laboratory tests, according to a report from the Catholic News
Service.
Pope revealed that like most students, who want some money
during their university days, he needed to make a little cash on the side.
So he worked in a bar in Buenos Aires and did some
moonlighting as a bouncer.
According to the report, but all this was before he saw the
light and chose the priesthood - entering the seminary in Villa Devoto.
On March 11, 1958 he joined the novitiate of the Society of
Jesus, or the Jesuits.
The rest is history.
