With this addition, the total number of cardinals will reach 243, including 137 cardinal electors. However, the count will dip slightly to 136 the following day, as one cardinal will surpass the voting age limit of eighty. Since his papal election in 2013, Pope Francis has displayed his vision for a diverse and inclusive college of Cardinals, as this forthcoming Consistory marks the creation of 121 cardinals from 66 countries, within eight such solemn gatherings. Of the current 121 cardinal electors, a remarkable 81% have been appointed under Pope Francis's leadership, reflecting his commitment to universality within the Church. š„ Follow us on our social networks: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/EWTNVatican/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/EWTNVatican Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EWTNVatican
