I would like too know if any one has ever written too the Pope,for I got his address were to sent my letter too the Pope, they said it would take a week too reach their,but I haven,t received a reply yet back from them at the Vaticon City,so do letters get seen by some one
at the Vacticon and answer or not, that,s my question.It,s been a month so far,could it be because it takes time for them too reply or does letter,s that from from reg people get put too the side.

This article describes how papal mail is handled: cnsblog.wordpress.com/2014/01/29/you-definitely-got-mail-whats-inside-the-papal-postbox/

Your letter would be in one of the 30 sacks of mail a week that arrive at the Vatican. It sounds like it takes time to go through them all.

It’s been a while but I wrote to Pope Benedict XVI once, I sent him a Christmas card with a letter. It took a while, but I did get a reply back. I didn’t even remember that I wrote to the Pope when I fist got the reply back, so at first I wondered why I was getting mail on behalf of the pope. It was not a canned response I got back, but a personalized response on behalf of Benedict with a picture of Pope Benedict XVI in it (I sent him a family photo, so I guess that might be why I got that…or maybe that is standard, I don’t know).
