May 1948 consecrated
Luis Fernando Castillo-Mendez, who, with Bishop Costa, on 23rd January
1949 consecrated
Estevan Meyer Corradi-Scarella as Bishop for Mexico, who on 20th
October 1973, after ordaining sub
conditione Harold Lawrence Trott to the Sacred Orders of Deacon and Priest
according to the Pontificale Romanum,
consecrated sub conditione the same Harold Lawrence Trott to the Sacred
Order of Bishops according to the Pontificale
Romanum, who on 26th March
1976 consecrated
Walter Howard Grundorf as Bishop Suffragan of the Diocese
of the Eastern United States of the American Episcopal Church according to the
Anglican rite.
In June 1945, Monsignor Carlos Duarte Costa (1888-1961), formerly Bishop
of Botucatu, Sao Paolo, and titular Bishop of Maura, Brazil, was excommunicated
by Pope Pius XII for his opposition to the Vatican’s apparent involvement with
the fascist regime in his country. This in turn led to the formation at Belo
Horizonte, Minas Gerais State, of an independent jurisdiction called
the Igreja Catolica Apostolica Brasileira.
Subsequently, Bishop Castillo-Mendez, himself consecrated by Bishop Costa,
raised Bishop Corradi to the Episcopate. Eventually, Bishop Corradi based his
ministry in Panama. Bishop Costa introduced a vernacular Portuguese liturgy
into his Church and abolished both compulsory clerical celibacy and the
necessity of auricular Confession. The ICAB website is www.icab.blog.br.
