Episcopal Commission for Liturgy in Brazil

The 60th General Assembly of the National Conference of Brazilian Bishops (NCBB) chose, on Wednesday 26 April, its new President for the Episcopal Conference for Liturgy of the NCBB. Fr Hernaldo Pinto Farias, bishop of Bonfim (BA), was chosen to guide this liturgical commission for the period of four years 2023-2027.

He had already acted as a consultant for this Commission during the process of translating the Third Edition of the Roman Missal. “Because I believe in a liturgy that was born out of the Second Vatican Council, I accept it!” he said in response to the question “do you accept this mission?”, asked by Fr Walmor Azevedo de Oliveira, president of the NCBB.
