Timeline
Marcello Semeraro (born 22 December 1947) is an Italian prelate of the Catholic Church who has been the Prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints since October 2020.
He was previously Bishop of Albano and secretary to the group of cardinals named by Pope Francis to advise him.
He was ordained to the priesthood on 8 September 1971.
He received his Doctor of Theology degree in 1980 from the Pontifical Lateran University.
On 25 July 1998 he was named Bishop of Oria.
He was consecrated on 29 September 1998 by Archbishop Cosmo Francesco Ruppi with Archbishops Domenico Caliandro and Donato Negro as co-consecrators.
He taught at the Pontifical Lateran University in 2001.
Pope John Paul II chose him as Special Secretary of the 2001 Synod of Bishops, which considered the role of the bishops in contemporary society.
That Synod's final statement pointed to social injustice as the root cause of terrorism and decried third world debt and "the enduring drama of hunger and extreme poverty".
Semeraro commented: "There is a strong will to dismantle the image of bishops as men of power and to reinstitute the image of bishops as men of service."
On 1 October 2004 he was named Bishop of Albano.
He is a Consultant to the Congregation for the Clergy and the Italian Episcopal Conference (IEC), and a member of the IEC Commission for the Doctrine of the Faith.
On 4 May 2007 he was elected president of the administrative board of the IEC newspaper Avvenire, in place of Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco of Genoa, who had been elected president of the IEC.
In June 2010, he became president of the IEC Commission for the Doctrine of the Faith.
On 13 April 2013 Pope Francis appointed him secretary of the commission of cardinals appointed to advise him on the government of the Church and the organization of the Roman Curia.
On 4 November 2013, Pope Francis appointed him Apostolic Administrator of the Exarchic Monastery and Territorial Abbacy of Saint Mary of Grottaferrata.
In a 2017 interview, Semeraro described the work of the Council of Cardinals: listening, reflecting, and verifying.
The Council, he said, listens to the contributions of the Church; reflects on those contributions, and looks into the details of them, considering the best way of going forward.
It then makes proposals to the Pope; as Semeraro explained, the Council has a consultative role.
Pope Francis raised him to the rank of cardinal on 28 November 2020.
Semeraro was born in Monteroni di Lecce, Province of Lecce, Italy.
On 15 October 2020, Pope Francis appointed him Prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints.
On 25 October 2020, Pope Francis announced he would raise him to the rank of cardinal at a consistory scheduled for 28 November 2020.
At that consistory, Francis made him Cardinal-Deacon of Santa Maria in Domnica.
On 16 December he was named a member of the Congregation for Oriental Churches and the Dicastery for Communications.
