Good Luck.
Pope Francis has given green light for three showers to be installed in Vatican so homeless have free place to wash. new showers will be in world-famous St Peter's Square, place where millions of pilgrims flock to each year. inspiration came from Archbishop Konrad Krajewski, who met man who had been homeless for decade. Apparently, the archbishop invited the man to dinner to celebrate his 50th birthday. man declined saying he was embarrassed to accept the invitation because he smelled bad. archbishop said: “I took him to dinner with me nonetheless….During dinner, he explained to me that you can always find some food in Rome. What is missing is place to wash."

Construction of showers will commence on November 17th. idea has energised city planners, who have already put plans in place to erect further ten showers across Rome. Archbishop Krajewski has called for volunteers and donations to help maintain showers. He said service particularly needed soap, towels and clean underwear. He told reporters: "It is not simple. It is easier to prepare sandwiches than to run shower service. You need volunteers." When asked by journalists if he thought visitors might be offended by showers for the homeless, archbishop replied that it had always been the duty of church to serve the poor and needy.
