Muniz Fernandes

Antônio Muniz Fernandes, O. Carm., Archbishop of Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil, declared prohibited all Latin Masses in his archdiocese and excommunicated anyone who knows, attends, or invites, saying these do not deserve the name of Christians nor of Catholics.

​Pope Pius V banned the New Order of Mass in the 16th century, the one Fernandes celebrates. My FSSP priests urge living a moral life is the best course of action. I am one of over 8,000 lay Confraternity members of the FSSP.

The men are described by secular outfits as a “traditionalist” Catholic society. The descriptive is an attempt to discredit.
