Pope Francis has passed over higher-ranking San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone and named Bishop Robert McElroy of San Diego, California, as one of 21 new cardinals in the Catholic Church.
Francis announced those who will be elevated and receive the prestigious red cardinal’s hat following traditional remarks Sunday at the Apostolic Palace in Vatican City, Rome.“Cardinal-elect McElroy is a native San Franciscan who was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of San Francisco in 1980,” Cordileone stated. “He served at several parishes, including St. Cecilia, St. Pius X, and St. Gregory.
On May 20, Cordileone announced that Pelosi should not present herself to a priest for Communion at Mass because of her stance on abortion and her recent calls to protect access to abortion at the federal level. Despite a growing number of bishops coming together to support Cordileone’s barring of Pelosi, the House speaker received the Eucharist at a Catholic Church in Washington, D.C., last week.Those set to be elevated to cardinal will reportedly participate in a consistory ceremony at the Vatican on Aug. 27. Among the 21 selected, 16 are younger than 80 and will be eligible to vote for Francis’s successor.
