The National Conference of Bishops of Brazil (CNBB) held a seminar in Brasília to discuss the preservation and management of the Church's cultural assets.

Father Gregório Paixão, president of the CNBB Commission for Culture, said the meeting intended to encourage bishops, priests, and laypeople to pay closer attention to the Church's cultural heritage and the responsibility to protect it. He noted that Brazil possesses a cultural wealth that should be recognized, valued, and used to serve the community.
