On the Original Constitutions

By Rev. Joseph Henchey, CSS

These studies provide a commentary on the 314 Original Constitutions of St. Gaspar – especially regarding their sources. The first document is an introduction (Historical Study) and the second one is about the first eight Constitutions handwritten by Fr. Bertoni (entitled: Compendium Rude), which offer guidelines for the rest of the Plan of the Constitutions, particularly for the ‘heart’ of the Stigmatine life, with the focus on the Apostolic Mission (Part IX).
