Embarrassed Vatican officials have recalled medals commemorating the first year of Pope Francis’s reign after spelling Jesus’s name wrong.

The official Vatican medals went on sale with the son of God’s name spelt as ‘Lesus’ before they were swiftly removed when the spelling error was spotted.

Around 6,000 of the gold, silver and bronzed medals, featuring the Pope’s motto on his coat of arms, were created by the Italian State Mint.

It says: ‘Jesus therefore sees the tax collector, and since he sees by having mercy and by choosing, he says to him, follow me.’

And you know what?, If I was of a suspicious mind (and I am) I'd wonder if this all wasn't done on purpose!

- It's a good thing Lesus Jesus has his long-form birth certificate to prove what his real name is and that he is, in fact, Amurikin,
