The Archdiocese of São Paulo (Latin: Archidioecesis Sancti Pauli in Brasilia; Portuguese: Arquidiocese de São Paulo) is a Latin Church archdiocese of the Catholic Church in Brazil. The Archdiocese has been headed by Odilo Scherer since his appointment by Pope Benedict XVI on 21 March 2007, an appointment that ended almost four decades of Franciscan leadership in the archdiocese: both predecessors, Cardinals Paulo Evaristo Arns and Cláudio Hummes, belonged to that Order.
