As a priest, he exercised the following duties: Professor of Theology at the Institute of Theology of Santa Catarina; Rector of the Major Seminary in Florianópolis; Preacher of Spiritual Retreats; Director of the Institute of Theology of Santa Catarina; Member of the Ecclesiastical Court of Florianópolis; lecturer and preacher of missions.[1]

Bishop and archbishop

On 9 March 1994, Pope John Paul II appointed Brandes Bishop of Joinville. He received his episcopal ordination there on 5 June 1994[2] from Bishops João Oneres Marchiori, Eusebio Oscar Scheid, SCI and Gregório Warmeling. He was secretary of the south region of the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil.

On 10 May 2006, Pope Benedict XVI appointed Brandes as Archbishop of Londrina.[1] where he was installed on 23 July.[2]

On 16 November 2016, Pope Francis appointed him Archbishop of Aparecida.[3] He was installed as Archbishop of Aparecida on 21 January 2017.[4] In October 12, 2019, during the Amazon Synod, he drew national attention for giving a sermon in Aparecida in a Morning Mass condemning what he saw as an "violent" and "unjust" right wing ideology, a "dragon of traditionialism" which he saw as "firing on the Pope [Francis], on the [Amazon] Synod, and the Second Vatican Council"[5] a few hours later, the President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro, known for being Political right, went to Mass in the National Shrine of Aparecida at 4 pm and read the biblical text as Reader.[6][7]
