Peter's voice on air waves for first time: in Latin!


Todays they start with: "Laudetur Iesus Christus, this is Vatican Radio!"
But in that glorious first moment when Pius XI first preached the Word on live radio from the Vatican City to the world in 1931 it was: "In Nomine Domini!"
See this Vatican Radio display at the free and fabulous exhibition at the Vatican celebrating the 80th birthday of the Vatican City State.
