All the very best wishes to Mgr. Scicluna , who , I believe , will be Malta's representative at the next Papal Conclave, as Malta's FIRST fully-fledged Cardinal !
He will , in my belief, be the first Maltese Papal "contestant" ! Awguri Mons . Scicluna

Congratulations! But could someone explain to me what exactly his new role is?All this when Jesus was born in a manger and lived amongst the poor for the poor. Let's just see all that gold coming out in these ceremonies!
