A meeting of OCD Friars of the Italian Circumscriptions took place from 19 to 21 February in the “Santa Maria Annunziata” Spirituality Centre in Maddaloni of the Neapolitan Province. It was organized by the OCD Major Superiors of the Italian Conference (CISM-OCD). We had made earlier references to this meeting in our social webs.
The purpose of the meeting was to share the deliberations of the various Italian Circumscriptions on their review of our Constitutions, as well as learning how the process was developing in other geographic regions and what were its prospects for the future. Four Provincials attended the meeting while Fr. Emilio Martinez, Secretary of the International Commission set up by the Definitory to assist in the Order’s review of our laws, acted as Moderator of proceedings.
A further meeting, with the same programme, is scheduled to take place in April at the OCD monastery of Bocca di Magra (Genovese Province). This will allow another group of Friars to attend.
