He studied with Karol Woytyla before his election as Pope John Paul II. Joos was already 80 years old when he was elevated to cardinal and therefore could not take part in any future conclave. His elevation as cardinal was seen by many as gratitude from Pope John Paul II towards his long time friend. Before his nomination he was only known as a parish priest. Belgian media mistook him for another priest just after he was elevated to Cardinal.

  • He studied with Karol Woytyla before his election as Pope John Paul II. Joos was already 80 years old when he was elevated to cardinal and therefore could not take part in any future conclave. His elevation as cardinal was seen by many as gratitude from Pope John Paul II towards his long time friend. Before his nomination he was only known as a parish priest. Belgian media mistook him for another priest just after he was elevated to Cardinal. After announcing his intention to elevate Father Joos to the Cardinalate, Pope John Paul also appointed him as a titular Bishop, and he was consecrated on October 7, 2003, days before the Consistory in which he was raised to the College of Cardinals. After his elevation, Cardinal Joos continued to live in the Diocese of Ghent, serving as a parish priest and as judicial vicar in ecclesiastical tribunals.
