Pope with Cardinals (1490–1524) - Catholic Coloring Page

The pope (Latin: papa, from Greek: πάππας, romanized: pappas, 'father'), also known as supreme pontiff, Roman pontiff or sovereign pontiff, is the bishop of Rome and head of the worldwide Catholic Church.

A cardinal (Latin: Sanctae Romanae Ecclesiae cardinalis, literally "cardinal of the Holy Roman Church") is a senior member of the clergy of the Catholic Church, immediately behind the pope in the order of precedence. Collectively, they constitute the College of Cardinals, and are appointed for life.
