Pope Francis, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio on December 17, 1936, is the leader of the Catholic Church, the bishop of Rome, and the ruler of the Vatican City State (Latin: Franciscus; Italian: Francesco; Spanish: Francisco).

Since Gregory III, a Syrian who ruled in the eighth century, Francis is the first pope to be a member of the Society of Jesus, the first from the Americas, the first from the Southern Hemisphere, and the first pope from outside of Europe.

Does Pope Francis have a child?

Pope Francis does not have a child.

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Bergoglio initially worked as a bouncer and janitor before enrolling in chemistry school and becoming a technician in a food science lab. He was motivated to join the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) in 1958 after making a full recovery from a serious illness.

In 1969, he was consecrated as a Catholic priest, and from 1973 to 1979, he served as Argentina’s provincial superior for the Jesuit order. In 1998, he was named Archbishop of Buenos Aires, and Pope John Paul II made him a cardinal in 2001. Throughout the riots in Argentina in December 2001, he served as its leader.
