A Historic Moment: The Philippines Awaits a Possible Filipino Pope

As the papal conclave unfolds in Vatican City, the Philippines is watching with keen anticipation. With three Filipino cardinals—Luis Antonio Tagle, Jose Advincula, and Pablo Virgilio David—eligible to vote and be voted for, the possibility of a Filipino pope has never been more tangible.

As the world waits, Filipinos are hopeful that one of their own may soon lead the Catholic Church.
