Cardinal Arinze @ 40 Years a Cardinal.
Today, we celebrate a living legend: Francis Cardinal Arinze—Nigerian by birth, Vatican veteran by calling, and eternal powerhouse of Catholic wisdom!
Exactly 40 years ago, Pope John Paul II looked at then-Archbishop Arinze and said, “Let’s make this guy a cardinal.” And what a choice! Since May 25, 1985, Cardinal Arinze has been wearing red (spiritually, of course) longer than most of us have worn socks.
He’s been:
A master of interreligious dialogue (basically, the Church’s peace ambassador).
A liturgy boss at the Vatican (aka the guy who kept Mass meaningful).
A walking encyclopedia of faith with a smile that could convert skeptics.
Now 92 years young, he’s still sharper than ever—and still holier than your Wi-Fi signal on Sunday morning.
Cardinal Arinze, thank you for being a prayerful powerhouse, wise warrior of the Word, and proud son of Africa. You’ve served the Church with joy.
Cheers to 40 cardinal years—and still counting!
May God grant you many more years of grace and laughter
