Pope Francis creates 21 cardinals who will help him to reform the church
Pope Francis created 21 new cardinals, including key Vatican figures and global representatives, to help enact his reforms and shape his legacy. The ceremony, which took place in Vatican City, saw nearly three-quarters of the voting-age cardinals appointed by Francis. The new cardinals, diverse in geography, are expected to contribute to the church's future direction, emphasizing a pastoral approach over doctrinal rigidity. Controversy arose with the appointment of Victor Manuel Fernandez, criticized by abuse survivors for past handling of cases. The cardinals will participate in an upcoming synod discussing issues like women's roles, LGBTQ+ Catholics, and priestly celibacy, potentially solidifying Francis' vision for a more inclusive church.
