Bishop Nelson Westrupp, scj, would like to pass on his email address. As many will recall Bishop Westrupp served for 12 years as a general councilor, during the time of Fr. Antonio Pantaghini (1979 to 1991). Just before the start of the 1991 19th General Chapter he was appointed bishop of S. José dos Campos (SP) Brazil. His new email address is: repiscop@tecsat.com.br .
