Pope Francis Appoints 21 New Cardinals, Highlighting Global Inclusion | Africanews
africanews.com/2024/12/07/pope-francis-appoints-21-new-cardinals-highlighting-global-inclusion/
Quick Glance: Pope Francis with Bruised Chin at Cardinal Ceremony
- Pope Francis led a ceremony on December 7, 2024, in St. Peter's Basilica to install 21 new cardinals, despite a bruise on his chin from a minor fall the previous day.
- The new cardinals hail from 17 countries, enhancing geographic diversity within the College of Cardinals and increasing the likelihood that the next pope may share Francis' vision for a more inclusive Church.
- In his homily, Francis highlighted the cultural diversity of the new cardinals and urged them to be witnesses of fraternity and builders of unity.
- With this installation, around 80% of the cardinals who will elect the next pope have been appointed by Francis.
Tre Araia has worked since he was 16 and was shocked to find out he had a $3000 student loan he knew nothing about. But the deceit did not stop there.
