Pope Francis Names 17 New Cardinals by petmax2020: 3:35pm On Oct 10, 2016 |
Pope Francis has named 17 new cardinals of the Catholic Church. Those appointed include 13 cardinal who are eligible to vote to elect his successor when he resigns or dies. The new cardinals are mainly from developing countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The appointments emphasize the growing influence at the Vatican of clerics from the developing world. Only one of the new cardinals is from Italy, the nation that has dominated church politics for centuries. Pope Francis, who celebrates his 80th birthday in December, appears to be putting down important markers for the future of the Catholic Church. Cardinals are the most senior members of the Roman Catholic hierarchy after the Pope. READ MORE: http://www.petmaxflame.com/2016/10/pope-francis-names-17-new-cardinals.html
