My dear collaborators,
I have just received information from the Conference of Catholic Bishops of India (CCBI) with regard to the use of the name of Pope Leo IV in the Eucharist.
The CCBI has informed us that we must use Pope Leo in the Eucharistic Prayer following the consecration and not the numerical (XIV). Please start using the name Pope Leo, and avoid using the numerical.
God bless you and with every good wish,
Yours in Christ,
✠Barthol Barretto
Bishop, Diocese of Nashik
