Antonio Giuseppe Angioni no relation Archpriest of the Basilica di San Pietro in Vaticano
Archbishop and Cardinal
On 30 January 1982, Noè was appointed Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments and made Titular Archbishop of Voncaria. He was ordained a bishop on 6 March 1982 in St. Peter's Basilica by Pope John Paul II, assisted by Archbishop Eduardo Martínez Somalo and Antonio Giuseppe Angioni, Bishop of Pavia.
Between 1984 and 1988 the dicastery was briefly redivided into the Congregation for the Sacraments (Congregatio de Sacramentis) and the Congregation for Divine Worship (Congregatio de Cultu Divino) under a single Prefect. In this new version of the latter, Archbishop Noè was the sole Archbishop Secretary, according to the classic system. Then, as a result of the Apostolic Constitution Pastor Bonus of 1988, this move was reversed and there emerged the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments (Sacra Congregatio de Cultu Divino de et Disciplina Sacramentorum), which still exists. In this new entity, Archbishop Noè was no longer the sole Archbishop Secretary, but reverted to being once more Archbishop Secretary but in charge of a distinct section for Divine Worship.
On 15 May 1989, Noè was named Coadjutor Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica, giving him the right to succeed the ailing Cardinal Aurelio Sabattani in that position. At the same time he was appointed Delegate of the Fabric of St. Peter, a body he could expect to head as Archpriest.
Noè was made Cardinal-Deacon of San Giovanni Bosco in Via Tuscolana in the consistory of 28 June 1991 by Pope John Paul II. Three days later, upon the retirement of Cardinal Sabattani, he was made Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica, President of the Fabric of St. Peter, and Vicar General of Vatican City.From 1993 to 1996 he was also President of the Cardinalatial Commission for the Pontifical Shrines of Pompei, Loreto and Bari.
After 10 years as Cardinal-Deacon, Noè took the option of elevation to the rank of Cardinal-Priest with the titular church of Regina Apostolorum as of 26 February 2002. He once said that Pope Paul VI spoke of the "smoke of Satan" when referring to priests who celebrated Mass badly.
