The 2025 papal conclave will have the most number of participating Filipino cardinals.

- By EVELYN MACAIRAN

According to CBCPNews, the official news service provider of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines, three Filipino cardinals will be participating in the conclave that begins on May 7 — Luis Antonio Tagle, pro-prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization; Jose Advincula of Manila, and Pablo Virgilio David of Kalookan.

Having three Filipino cardinal-electors reportedly underscores the Philippines' rising influence in the universal Church.

They are currently in Rome to prepare to select the successor of Pope Francis. At the conclave, they would cast their ballots in the closed-door voting held beneath Michelangelo's frescoes in the Sistine Chapel.
