Discover the influential Cardinals from Latin America, one of the most significant regions in today's Catholic Church. Following the election of Pope Francis, the Church's first Latin American pope, attention has increasingly focused on this dynamic region that is home to 13% of the global Catholic population.

In this video, we explore the 23 Cardinal Electors from the Caribbean, Central, and South America who play a pivotal role in shaping the Church's future. We examine their backgrounds, influence, and close connections to Pope Francis. From the major Catholic populations in Brazil and Mexico to Argentina and smaller nations like Guatemala and Haiti, get to know these cardinals' theological profiles and their stances on crucial Church issues.

Who are the key players, and how does their background and vision influence the global Church?

Watch the full video for insights into the Latin American bloc's impact on future papal elections and the Catholic Church's direction.
