Advisory

Viewers are cautioned that the legislation may or may not be the most updated versions. They are made available here purely for educational purposes. You are advised to contact appropriate qualified persons (e.g. parish priest, qualified lawyer) when seeking advice.

Explanatory Notes: As explained in The Rule of the Franciscan Order document, “a religious order is based on a rule”. In the Constitutions of the Benedictines, it says “the constitutions interpret the Rule, yet they cannot be understood apart from it… (even if it includes) spirituality and history (since it concerns) the heritage.”
