  1. Brazil's bishops' conference issues a note criticising the TFP

    At its 23rd general assembly, the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil (CNBB) approved a note criticising the TFP for a 'lack of communion' with the Brazilian Church, its hierarchy and the pope, and urging Catholics not to join or cooperate with it, according to the text as reproduced by the American TFP. The Brazilian TFP rejected the accusations as vague and generic.
