Bishop Lúcio Andrice Muandula, President of IMBISA from 2016-2022, was appointed Bishop of Chimoio, Mozambique, on Wednesday 17 August 2025. He was transferred from the Diocese of Xai-Xai, which he has led since June 2004.
His episcopal motto “IN VERITATE ET CARITATE,” which means “in truth and love”, reminds us of the social doctrine of the Church, emphasizing that true human development requires the inseparable union of truth and charity.
Let us join the members of IMBISA and all the faithful in praying for Bishop Lúcio. May the Virgin Mary accompany him in his new mission!
