Adopt-a-cardinal

Aw... TJTM... I wondered who would get him.  He really does need the prayers, however.... can we make a deal... I'll share my cardinal if you would like me to share Cardinal Mahoney with you.   Would that help? 

 

We can share them....  Giuseppe Cardinal Versaldi from Italy is a psychologist and canon lawyer..... he specializes in family stuff... and is in charge of the Vatican economic office...

 

I think he could use some extra prayers, too.... and maybe Cardinal Mahoney would benefit from a sibling?

I got Cardinal George Alencherry from India! He was apparently named a Cardinal early last year, and he is Major Archbishop of Ernakulam-Angamaly, India and head of the Syro-Malabar Catholic Church. I've never heard of him before, but he still sounds cool!

I got Cardinal Pell of Sydney, Australia.  I don't know much about him but Australia is pretty cool   :cool:  So dumb question: Is this a one-time prayer, prayer for a period of time until the new pope is elected, or praying for them for the rest of their lives?  Just curious.

It says what to do in the email it sends. If I remember correctly, pray daily for him (In whatever way you wish) in the days before and during the Conclave.

I didn't like my first cardinal so I adopted a 2nd. now  I feel guilty. I guess my prayers will just have to count twice!

:blink: What do you mean you didn't like your first?

Cardinal Juan Luis Cipriani Thorne of Lima Peru.  1 of 2 Cardinal's who are members of Opus Dei, which is pretty cool.  I'm a fan.
