The director of the Press Office of the Holy See Matteo Bruni stated on Tuesday that Two electors' cardinals will not take part in the conclave for health reasons. They were not given their identity.
The Archdiocese of Valencia informed the ACI Prens agency that one of the cardinals who Antonio Canizares is not taking part in the conclave. In turn, the sources in the Archdiocese of Nairobi confirmed the CNA information partner in Africa that for health reasons an African clergyman John Njue will not go to Rome to choose another pope.
We know the date of the conclave. There is a Vatican's decision
The conclave will start on May 7. This message was given by the Vatican Press Office. The Sistine Chapel has already been closed to visitors, which means that the preparations have entered the final phase.
The election of the Pope is one of the most spectacular events in the modern world, primarily because of the scenery of the Sistine Chapel and all recalling centuries -old tradition and an unchanging ritual. And because this is an extraordinary secret, it stimulates imagination and guesses, causing widespread interest that goes far beyond the life of the Church.
