Colombian Cardinal Supports Canonization of Queen Isabel of Spain Avila, Spain, Aug. 24 (CNA/CWNews.com). Cardinal Lopez Trujillo said he was “a convinced defender of the importance that Queen Isabel the Catholic represents for the Church and for the history of the Church in Spain and in Latin America,” and that therefore he will be pushing in Rome for her beatification and canonization. The Colombian cardinal, who is also a member of the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints, expressed his commitment “to promote, together with the Spanish cardinals and bishops, the providential cause of Isabel the Catholic, which is also well-supported by history. It is a canonization that should be in hearts of all in Spain.” Expressing the support of the bishops and cardinals of Latin America for her cause, Cardinal Lopez Trujillo said, “This process should not encounter any obstacles; on the contrary, it should be supported by the entire community of believers”. |
