Curia: Msgr. Guido Pozzo Appointed to CDF

(Vatican) Pope Francis has named Curial Bishop Guido Pozzo as new Consultor to the Congregation for Doctrine and the Faith. Pozzo was the Secretary of the Papal Commission Ecclesia Dei from 2009-2012 which is responsible for the traditional orders, communities and groups and is subject to the CDF. In November 2012 Pope Benedict XVI. named him to Papal Almoner and titular Bishop, an office he will also manage. Msgr. Pozzo came in 1987 as an assistant to the CDF in the Roman Curia.

  1. He's written some of PCED's responses to laity asking about whether SSPX Masses fulfill Sunday obligation, etc., including the "Friends of SSPX" letter and the Brazilian letter.

  3. It's not the end of the work, but I think Alan Aversa's comment is revealing.

    1. I'm not sure what it reveals, though…

    2. I think Msgr. Pozzo's disposition to the society is not favorable, which could be a positive thing from the POV of those who are opposed to the reconciliation.

  4. Pozzo was also the one who sent the notorious letter to the IBP, the one with the 'rite proper' stuff and about the Council. I had some hopes for them before that. Not his decision, I guess, but the name still gives me the willies.

  5. I do not need to hear even from a pope on whether or not attending an SSPX Mass fulfills the Sunday obligation. Those who know the Faith and the Law are aware that attending a Novus Ordo is what does not fulfill a Catholic's Sunday obligation.
