Novus Ordo: Brazilian Bishop Celebrates Masonic Lodge's Anniversary

Atalaia do Sul [Southern Watchtower] Lodge in the city of Campos in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, invited Diocesan Bishop Roberto Paz to deliver a speech there this coming August 14, 2017, the day celebrating the 98th anniversary of that Masonic organization.

Bishop Paz is following the steps of so many other Prelates who, under the inspiration of Vatican Council II, became friends of Freemasonry and have visited their lodges.

Below, we present a photocopy of the invitation issued by the Masonic Lodge to its members and friends.

Above the letter in Portuguese, we present its complete translation to English in blue print.
