Si vous avez une question, une demande pour le chapitre ...

Venez rencontrer le recteur et les dignitaires du chapitre général pour leur poser toute les questions que vous voudrez. Comme le recteur est souvent très occupé, il se peux que son second, le grand prieur ou un dignitaire répondent à sa place.

Bonsoir,

Pardonnez-moi de vous déranger, mais une question des plus étranges me turlupine depuis quelques temps. Le 23 juin 1456 Messire Légolas dict princeelfe ce fait baptiser dans le Diocèse d'Orléans par le père Casim à l'époque curé de Patay. Hors le baptême ne se passe pas à Patay, mais à Orléans et non pas dans une église, mais au bord de la Loire et de plus sans Pastoral par le baptiser avant le baptême, alors qu'as cette époque la Pastoral était déjà obligatoire.

Si je vous pose aujourd'hui la question c'est que messire Legolas aimerais d'un baptême valide, hors je ne pouvais lui répondre. Le fait d'être jeté dans la Loire et baptiser au bord de l'eau par un curé d'une autre paroisse, rend-t-il sont baptême valide aux yeux de notre église ? Ou tout, dans cette histoire et complètement faux et fou? Je peu certifiée la vérité des faits étant présente ce jour-là en tant que marraine.

J'ai vérifié dans les registres et il est bien inscrit comme baptiser, mais j'en reste partagée, ce n'est pas vraiment un baptême d'être plongé dans la Loire ? Si ? Bref je m'adresse à vous, n'hésiter pas à m'envoyer frapper à une autre porte si vous n'avez pas de réponse à me donner ou êtes comme moi un peu perdu.

Je rappelle que c'est Messire Legolas qui m'envoie et qui souhaiterait une fois pour toute être baptisé dans les règles de l'église, sans avoir un doute sur son étrange Baptême.

Je suis désolée, de vous déranger avec cela, mais je ne voyais pas vraiment à qui d'autre m'adresser et je sais que vos connaissances du monde de notre église pourrons certainement m'aider à guider au mieux cet homme sur le chemin de la vérité.
Je vous remercie d'avoir prit le temps de me lire et espère recevoir rapidement une réponse de votre part.

Typhanie,
Novice et Adjointe du prévôt.

Ma soeur, je me charge de votre cas.

Votre ami est, en effet, considéré comme baptisé:

Citation :

Legolas dict Prince Elfe le 23 juin 1456 par Casim.

Personne ne remettra donc son baptême en cause. Mais c'est vrai que la procédure fut étrange...

Peut-être serait-il bon pour lui de faire faire une confirmation, comme pour les enfants? Il passerait alors sa pastorale.

le droit canon a écrit:

S’il est déjà baptisé nous avons 2 cas :

C1) Si c'est dans l'Eglise Aristotélicienne on peut par contre faire une confirmation du baptême. (C'est l'idéal si le baptisé à déjà pour des raisons RP signalé avoir été baptisé)
La confirmation est en général utilisée pour les adultes qui ont été baptisé enfants, ou ceux dont les traces du baptême ont été perdu ou entaché d’irrégularité)

Qu'il aille donc s'inscrire [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] s'il veut le faire dans nos murs.

Merci soeur Ellya, je vais effectivement l'envoyer s'inscrire faire une pastoral et une confirmation. Merci bien pour la réponse, je peu ainsi annuler le pigeon envoyer à Frère Roger pour le même problème.

La Grande Prieure était penchée sur un pupitre, occupée à rédiger plusieurs missives, lorsque la porte de la salle s'ouvrit sur la sœur portière.

Mercè, ma sœur, nous allons le recevoir. Pouvez-vous prévenir monseigneur Bardieu de cette importante visite, s'il vous plait ? Si vous pouviez également mander une collation à sœur Eilinn, je vous en serais reconnaissante.

Puys, à l'Eminence en question, elle déclara avec un sourire.

Bonjorn, Eminence, soyez le bienvenu chez les cisterciens. Je vous en prie, prenez un siège.

Souhaitez-vous boire quelque chose, en attendant l'arrivée du recteur ?

.....

The Big Prior was tilted on a writing desk, drafting several letters, when the door of the room opened on the doorwoman sister.

Thank you, my sister, we are going to receive him. Can you inform his grace Bardieu of this important visit, please? If you could also ask for a meal to sister Eilinn, I would be grateful to you for it.

Then, she declared to the visitor, with a smile.

Good Morning, Eminence, welcome at the Cistercians. Please take a seat.

Do you wish to drink anything, while waiting for the arrival of the abbot ?

Bardieu écouta son éminence se présenter. Le moine avait comprit, face aux silence des autres membres de la communauté, que c'était à lui de parler. Bardieu n'était pas un grand spécialiste de la conduite à avoir avec les cardinaux, mais il prit sur lui cette rsponsabilité et commença à répondre au cardinal.

Votre éminence, soyez le bienvenue, encore une fois, dans notre sainte abbaye. Vous trouverez, ici, paix, amour, piété et foi, car l'humilité est la première des valeurs cisterciennes. La règle de Saint Benoît est appliquée à la lettre et nous en sommes extrêmement fière.

Je suis également heureux de savoir que vous comptez visiter chaque abbaye et monastère de notre sainte église. je pense que vous commencez par une des plus belles. Saint Arnvald était un de nos plus grands saints, il est normal que l'abbaye qui porte son nom soit une des plus importantes dans les royaumes. Si vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur nous et les cisterciens en général, je peux résumer notre vie en notre travail au service du Très Haut et de la congrégation pour la diffusion de la foi, mais aussi de la congrégation pour les affaires du siècle.

Notre abbaye n'a pas pour autre vocation que de servir, humblement, la communauté. Hélas, cela nous vaut parfois quelques critiques, comme d'être une bétaillère à cérémonie, mais il vaut parfois mieux trop servir que pas assez.
Mais nous vous écoutons votre éminence, sur les objectifs de votre visite.

Bardieu listened his eminence words. The monk realized, due to the silence of the other members of the community, as it was time for him to speak. Bardieu was not a great expert on driving discussion with the Cardinals, but he took responsability and began to respond to the cardinal.

Your Eminence, welcome again in our holy abbey. You will find here peace, love, piety and faith. Humility is the first of the Cistercian values​​. Rule of St. Benedict is applied very strictly and we are extremely proud of it.

I am also happy to know that you plan to visit every abbey and monastery of our holy church. I think you start with one of the best. Saint Arnvald was one of our greatest saints, it is normal that the abbey which bears his name is one of the largest in the kingdom. If you want to know more about us and the Cistercians in general, I can sum up our lives in our work in the service of god and the congregation for the propagation of the faith, but also of the Congregation of external affairs.
Our Abbey has no other purpose than to serve humbly the community. So, it is sometimes us some critics, like being a ceremony cattle truck, but it is sometimes better to serve too much than not enough.
But we'll listen to your eminence, the objectives of your visit.

And, with the magic google, I can try in italien (but without gouvernemental guarentee).

Bardieu ascoltato la sua eminenza sorgere. Il monaco si era reso conto, dato il silenzio degli altri membri della comunità, come è stato per lui a parlare. Bardieu non era un grande esperto di guida a che fare con i cardinali, ma il rsponsabilité primario su di lui e cominciò a rispondere al cardinale.

Eminenza, ancora una volta il benvenuto nel nostro abbazia santa. Troverete qui la pace, l'amore, la pietà e la fede, per l'umiltà è il primo dei valori cistercense. Regola di san Benedetto viene applicata alla lettera e siamo estremamente orgogliosi.

Sono anche felice di sapere che avete intenzione di visitare ogni abbazia e il monastero di nostra Santa Chiesa. Penso di iniziare con uno dei migliori. San Arnvald era uno dei nostri più grandi santi, è normale che l'abbazia che porta il suo nome è uno dei più grandi del regno. Se volete saperne di più su di noi e dei cistercensi in generale, posso riassumere la nostra vita nel nostro lavoro al servizio dell'Altissimo e la congregazione per la diffusione della fede, ma anche della Congregazione per gli affari del secolo.

La nostra abbazia non ha altro scopo che servire con umiltà la comunità. Ahimè, a volte noi alcuni critici, come essere un carro bestiame in cerimonia, ma a volte è meglio usare troppo che non abbastanza.
Ma faremo ascoltare la vostra eminenza, gli obiettivi della vostra visita.

Il en manquait néanmoins une sur les bancs du chapitre régulier, non pas parce qu'elle faisait grève pour obtenir le droit à la grasse matinée, ou la permission de faire le mur de l'abbaye, mais bien parce qu'elle avait été missionnée pour la collation pour l'arrivée d'un cardinal italien. La jeune fille s'était exécutée sans mauvaise grâce, après tout cela avait aussi été son métier dans le siècle. Ce fut chargée d'un grand plateau qu'elle se présenta au bureau public du chapitre, ou Monseigneur venait de rompre le voeu de silence pour les autres membres.
Elle déposa celui-ci, non loin d'Uriel.

Frère Uriel, vous allez bien m'aider à servir notre invité !

Et de déposer devant lui le cruchon de bière, tandis que les gobelets en étain étaient disposés. Il y avait également sur le plateau de la soeur cuisinière de grands tranchoirs de pain, du fromage de chèvre, du miel, de la confiture, des fruits secs, mais également de la terrine de lapin aux châtaignes ramassées sur le domaine et tout juste cuite. Une fois tout ceci disposé afin que chacun se serve à son goût, notamment Monseigneur Bardieu et l'invité italien, Eilinn se présenta comme cela lui avait été demandé, et en italien. Avoir un père milanais avait ces avantages.

Eminenza, mi chiamo Eilinn, e io sono il cuoco dell'abbazia. Tutti questi piatti sono stati prodotti dalla Abbazia di Noirlac.

Elle s'installa ensuite.

***

A young little girl was missing, but the reason was that she had to prepare a brunch for the guest. She arrived, bearing a big tray, and filed it near Uriel.

Brother Uriel, you will help me !

And to file in front of Uriel a big jug of beer, while she was preparing tin cups. There was also on the tray large bread slices, goat cheese, honey, jam, dried fruits, but also rabbit terrine with chestnuts, picked in the gardens, and still lukewarm. She disposed everything on the table in way to allow Mgr Bardieu and his guest to serve themselves, and she introduced herself in italian. Having a milanese father had that kind of benefits.

Eminence, my name is Eilinn, and I am the cooker of the abbey. All products have been made in the abbey.

Then, she sitted.

HRP : I will be out of the game during five days. You can continue the role play without me with Alessandro.

HRP : je vais être absent 5 jours, donc, continuez le RP sans moi !

La nonne réalisa qu'elle avait oublié de se présenter en accueillant le cardinal, aussi prit-elle la parole après frère Roger.

Je suys quant à moy mère Eloin, Grande Prieure de l'ordre cistercien, et Sous-secrétaire Apostolique de Limoges.

..............

The nun realized that she had forgotten to appear by welcoming the cardinal, also she spoke after brother Roger.

I'm mother Eloin, Great Priest of the cistercian order, and Apostolic Under-secreatary of Limoges.

Yes I Think we are full now.



Nous vous écoutons donc monseigneur

Ce fut Eloin qui répondit, en tant qu'ancienne légate, elle en savait suffisamment sur les abbayes filles de l'ordre cistercien pour pouvoir s'exprimer sans se tromper.

En effet, nous avons plusieurs abbayes filles.

Fornovo en Italie, qui se reconstruit petit à petit après avoir subi un incendie voici quelques moys.

Valbonna de Les Monges en Espagne, fondée par feu SE Tanys, qui reprendra sous peu une activité correcte avec la nomination de SE Carolum en tant que nouvel abbé, et les futures intronisations de nouveaux moines.

Egmont en Hollande, sous la direction de père Bolsius, avec une dizaine de moines, d'après le dernier recensement.

Et Mauchline, en Angleterre, qui, suite à une épidémie ayant décimé ses membres, n'a plus qu'une abbesse dont nous n'avons plus eu de nouvelles depuys longtemps, et je ne sais si nous pourrons un jour repeupler cette abbaye fille. La foy dans les environs de Mauchline étant, aux dires de mère Finn, insuffisante pour trouver assez de moines et moniales, et remettre en marche l'abbaye.

Enfin, nous avions le projet, lorsque frère Enosch était légat, d'ouvrir une abbaye fille en Pologne, mais le projet est tombé à l'eau, et j'avoue que les légats qui se succédèrent après luy, moy y compris, ne surent point comment faire pour reprendre l'idée, ni pour contacter des fidèles sur place...

....

It was Eloin who answered, as former legate, she knew enough about daughter abbeys about it of the Cistercian order to be able to express herself without making a mistake.

Indeed, we have several daughter abbeys :

Fornovo in Italy, which reconstructs little by little having undergone a fire here is a few months.

Valbonna of Monges in Spain, established by late Tanys, who will soon take back a correct activity with the appointment of Carolum as new abbot, and the future enthronements of new monks.

Egmont in Holland, supervised by father Bolsius, with about ten monks, according to the last census.

And Mauchline, in England, which, further to an epidemic having decimated their members, doesn't have more than an abbess news of which we no more had for a long time, and I don't know if we can one day repopulate this abbey. The faith around of Mauchline being, in mother Finn's statements, insufficient to find enough monks and nuns, and to restart the abbey.

Finally, we had the project, when brother Enosch was a legate, to open an daughter abbey in Poland, but the project is fallen through, and I admit that the legates who succeeded one another after him, me including, didn't know how to take back the idea, nor to contact spot believers...

Saint Étienne de Harding Charter
between the Saint Arnvald Cistercian Mother Abbey
and the Cistercian Daughter Abbeys

PREAMBLE

The Saint Etienne de Harding Charter (SEHC) defines the relationships between the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac and the cistercian daughter abbeys.

The cistercian family is international and the goal of this document is to make sure that it remains consistent, sharing the same values and practices, as St Benedict told us when he wrote his Rule.



ABOUT THE CISTERCIAN ABBEYS

• 1. The cistercian order is composed of two kinds of abbeys : mother abbey and daughter abbeys.
  
  
• 2. There is only one mother abbey: the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac. The Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac is the mother of all daughter abbeys. The cistercian order is lead by the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac.
  
  
• 3. There can be only one cistercian abbey per linguistic zone. Daughter abbeys have 2 official languages : English and the one spoken in their linguistic zone. French is the official language -along with English- of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac only.
  
  

ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL CISTERCIAN SYNOD

• 1. Coordination between the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac and the daughter abbeys is the task of the International Cistercian Synod (ICS). Official languages of the ICS are French and English.
  
  
• 2. Members of the International Cistercian Synod may be voting members or consulting members (thus non-voting).
  Each abbey (including the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac) has 3 voting members : its abbot and 2 members of its chapter, designated according to the internal rule of the abbey.
  Consulting members are : former abbots of both mother and daughter abbeys, high officials of the cistercian order as appointed by the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac and cistercian bishops (or cardinals...).
  
  
• 3. The abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac is the leader of the ICS. He has a right of veto.
  
  
• 4. The ICS will meet at least once a month in the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac.
  
  
• 5. The abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac may organise the work of the ICS as he wants. He may delegate some specific tasks to some of its members.
  
  

ABOUT THE FOUNDING OF DAUGHTER ABBEYS

• 1. Only the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac may decide to found a new daughter abbey (or to associate an exisiting independent abbey to the cistercian order).
  The abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac names the first abbot of the new daughter abbey. Following abbots are named by the chapter of the daughter abbey.
  
  
• 2. At least three active members in the targeted linguistic zone have to commit to involve themselves in the life of the future daughter abbey. These founders of the daughter abbey will have to go through the novice teaching in the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac (curriculum in English).
  
  
• 3. Daugther abbeys will have Saint Arnvald as their patron saint. They are encouraged to have additional patron saints (recognized by the Aristotelician Church) native from their linguistic zone.
  
  
• 4. The future daughter abbey will be officialy opened after a formal visit of its building and a formal examination of its internal Rule by the ICS. The abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac will pronounce the official founding.
  
  

ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION OF DAUGHTER ABBEYS

• 1. Daughter abbeys are members of the cistercian order. Thus they will integrate in their own internal Rules the values and main concepts of the Cistercian Charter of Charity and the Rule of Saint Benedict. The Rules of the daughter abbeys will also explicitly mention a complete respect of the dogma and cannon law of URAC.
  
  
• 2. The abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac or his/her representative will be a member of the chapter of each daughter abbey. He (or his/her representative) will have all keys of the daughter abbey (ie. have admin rights on the forum of the abbey). He will make sure that the members of the daughter abbey continuously respect the cistercian values and stay consistent with the cistercian teaching and liturgical usages.
  
  
• 3. Daughter abbeys will be organised consistently with the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac.
  Its members will have similar functions (abbot, high priest, dean of seminar, master of novices ...) and the buildings (ie. forum) will be organised according to the same scheme than the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac.
  Also, the members of the daughter abbeys will wear the cistercian traditional black scapular and white dress.
  The blason of the cistercian order will be made visible.
  Daughter abbeys are encouraged to develop their own additional symbols.
  
  
• 4. The daughter abbeys will base their teaching methods and curriculums as well as their liturgies on the ones used in the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac. The traditional cistercian blessing based on Aristotle reference to the 5 elements shall be the only form of blessing pronounced by cistercian priests. The extraordinary cistercian liturgy shall be used for important ceremonies.
  
  
• 5. New members (novices) of the daughter abbeys will have to go through a novice training similar to the one done in the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac (at least 15 days of roleplay involvment in the life of the abbey and a 5 lessons curriculum). Of course, they shall also be baptised. They then pronounce their vows in the daughter abbey and get appointed as sister/brother by the local abbot or high priest.
  
  
• 6. After their inception, daughter abbeys are free to name their abbot and members of chapter according to their own internal Rule. The naming process will have to be documented. The abbots of the daughter abbey will swear obedience to the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac and respect of the cistercian values.
  
  
• 7. According the the Cannon Law, abbots and high priests of the daughter abbeys won't have the status of bishops unless appointed as such in the seculat way. Only the Abbot of the whole cistercian order (and thus of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac) and its high priest (in French, grand prieur) are considered as bishops of a pseudo diocese: the cistercian order.
  As a consequence, if the abbot or high priest of a daughter abbey wants to ordain a member of his/her abbey, they have to get explicit permission from the abbot of the cistercian order or its high priest for each ordaining. The futur priest will have to follow appropriate theological courses and be baptised according to the Cannon Law.
  
  
• 8. Abbots of daughter abbeys or their representative will keep in the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac records of the members of their abbeys (members of the chapter, brothers and sisters, novices, oblates). They will also write monthly reports on the status of their abbey and noticeable events.
  
  

ABOUT THE NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE CHARTER

• 1. In case of violation of the cistercian values or of the present charter, the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac or his/her representative, will take action to correct the wrong behaviour. If these corrective actions are not enough, he will have all powers to dismiss the abbot of the faulty daughter abbey, after having consulted its chapter. If the members of the faulty daughter abbey keep violating the cistercian values, the ICS may pronounce the exclusion of the whole abbey from the cistercian order. Such measures would only be taken after appropriate inquiries as dialog is the favorite mean of conflict resolution within the cistercian order.
  
  
• 2. The abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac has all powers to revoke, sanction, suspend or formally reprove members of daughter abbeys, after having consulted with the ICS.
  
  

ABOUT THE MODIFICATION OF THE SAINT ETIENNE DE HARDING CHARTER

• 1. The Saint Etienne de Harding Charter (SEHC) may be modified by the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac after a vote of the ICS.
  
  
• 2. The modified SEHC will then be signed again by all cistercian abbots.
  

In Nomine Cistercium Mater Nostra, by Aristotle and Christos, may Faith and Reason guide you and Saint Arnvald the fair protect you.
Gaming salutations and Aristotelician blessings.

Signed and sealed by Frere Roger, Abbot of the Saint Arnvald Abbey in Noirlac.

CHARTER OF CHARITY or Carta Caritatis

"Separated by the body in the various parts of the world, that they are indissolubly linked by the soul. Living in the same Rule, with the same habits." is the motto of the order of Cîteaux (known also as "Ordo Cisterciensis")


I. Preamble and the four saints founders:

• 1. The present "Charter of Charity" and the charter " Mother-Daughter Saint Etienne of Harding" are the legal cistercian documents by excellence: they define the constitution of the order in the legal direction. They were originally written by Saint Etienne of Harding himself, he was the third abbot of Cîteaux in 1098. Saint Etienne of Harding wanting to ensure mutual peace, ruled and transmitted to his successors these two charters in order to weld indissolubly the cistercian monks, dispersed in the abbeys in various places.

• 2. Driven by his indirect knowledge of the Divine Law given by the Shelf of Oane, Benoit, patron saint of the Roman Religious orders, writer of the twelve precepts and the Rule of Saint-Benoit, had a dominating influence at the organisational level of the Cistercian order. The Rule of Saint-Benoit has an exemplary moral value but is not an obligatory standard within the Order.

• 3. The influence of the Cistercians was at its top in XIIth century, thanks to the charismatic Saint Bernard of Bussière. His strong personality contributed much to the extraordinary development of the Order. Mystic, doctor of the Church, man of God and politician, Saint Bernard of Bussière was, one wrote, " conscience of his century". He became patron saint of cross and the knights of God whose proximity always remained expensive in the middle of the cistercians.

• 4. The XVth century is a disaster for the Cistercian order, threatened with disappearance: war with the English, plague, plundering in rules and incurie. Cîteaux and several major cistercian abbeys disappear the ones after the others. The blackjack May of the year one thousand four hundred and fiftyone, in Berry, the abbey of Noirlac is high with the dignity of mother of the Order from a founder and saving point of view. Saint Arnvald became abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac of the Ordo Cisterciensis. He also became patron saint of the magistrates, lawyers and justiciable (Justice), of the journalists (Truth), of the knighthood (Integrity) but especially major patron saint of the cistercians.

II. The cistercians values

• 1. The faith because of engagement in the order is prime to any monk. The cistercians must respect the Aristotélicien Dogma, the Canonical Right and the hierarchy of the Holy Universal Church Aristotelician Roman to avoid sinking in heterodoxy. Harmonious relationship with the other members of our clergy and the respect of its ecclesiastical superiors is fundamental.

• 2. Charity is a essential cistercian value. It is therefore included in the title of its text founder: the Charter of Charity. Exaggerated selfishness and the research of the profit for oneself is to be banished. Charity is demonstration of the aristotelician friendship. It is the faculty to be concerned with fate of others. It's empathy, mutual aid, reciprocity of the social reports/ratios, love of one's neighbour. Each one acts in this field in its heart and conscience.

• 3. The exemplarity based on the models given by the saints founders and their successors is a paramount value. The brother cistercian is held with the respect for a certain code of implicit honor. He must by his control of it to be an example for the faithful ones. This duty of exemplarity passes in particular by the respect for others, of the right laws and the marked wishes. This search for perfection and for integrity is reinforced by the triptych of Arnvald Saint who states the search of Justice, Truth and Integrity.

III. The twelve prescriptions of Saint-Benoit

• The twelve prescriptions of Saint-Benoit, intended to civilize a little the life of the city, are also major commands of the Cistercian order.
  
  1. Only one God you will adore and love perfectly.
  2. His Saint Name you will respect, avoiding blasphemy and false oath.
  3. The Sunday you will request, by serving God devoutly.
  4. Your father and mother, you will honour, your superiors equally.
  5. Murder and scandal you will avoid, hatred and anger identically.
  6. The purity you will observe, in your acts carefully.
  7. The good of others you will not take, or will not retain wrongfully.
  8. The scandalmongering you will banish, and the lie also.
  9. In thoughts, desires, you will take care to entirely remain pure.
  10. Well of others you will not covet for not to have dishonesty.
  11. Faith and Reason will guide you simultaneously.
  12. Only Aristote and Christos you will praise, avoiding the false prophets.

VI. Organization of the Order

• 1. The abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac cistercian, who is the higher authority of the Church in the Cistercian order, is the abbot Res Parendo of the abbey Saint Arnvald of Noirlac. He is canonically considered as a bishop with the regard of the members of his Kind, fictitious diocese.
  2. The abbot of the cistercian Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac is appointed for life and must inevitably be a cistercian affiliated to the Saint Arnvald of Noirlac abbey. In the event of resignation or recognized death of the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac, the high prioris is the famous candidate for his succession. If desistance or prolonged absence of the large-prior, the candidate is then indicated by the chapter of the Saint Arnvald de Noirlac abbey. Then, the official candidate must still be formally approved by the International Cistercian Synod (ICS).

• 2. The grand prior cistercian is the right-hand man of the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac in all matters. He divides, by canonical delegation of being able, the authority and capacities of the abbot of the Saint Arnvald abbey in Noirlac, whom he can replace where necessary. He is named by the abbot of the Saint Arnvald in Noirlac cistercian abbey and must necessarily be a cistercian affiliated to the mother abbey of the cistercian order.

• 3. The present charter changes on a proposal from the abbot of the Saint Arnvald in Noirlac cistercian abbey with a vote of the international cistercian synod, set up by the charter " Mother-Daughter Saint Etienne of Harding".

IV. Establishment of a cistercian

• 1. The establishment of a cistercian is done at the time of a religious ceremony at the end of the noviciate, celebrated by the abbot, his prior or a cistercian delegated by the chapter to this function. The applicant will have to make the three following promises and to pronounce the oath cistercian.

• 2. Promise of Stability: by this wish of stability in my community, me, future cistercian, trustful in the Providence of God who called me in this place and in this group of brothers and sisters, I engage myself to employ with constancy, in the duration, the instruments of the spiritual art.

• 3. Promise of Conversion of Life: By this wish of conversion of life, me, future cistercian, seeking the Almighty in the simplicity of his heart, under the control of Vita of Christos and the Book of Virtues, I engage myself with the cistercian discipline.

• 4. Promise of Obedience: by this wish of obedience, me, future cistercian, candidate with living under a rule and the authority of the abbot, I promise to achieve all that the legitimate superiors will order according to the charters and cistercian traditions. Refusing thus my own will, I am example of obeying Christos untill my death and I engage in the school of the service of the Almighty.

• 5. Oath cistercian: " I make the oath in front of Aristote and on the Holy-Writings to always act in prime interest of the Cistercian order and of the Aristotelean church, Apostolic and Roman. I engage myself to respect the following wishes (to mention them according to the statute monk or oblat). By the grace of Saint Bernard, I recognize myself, subjected to the hierarchy, the obligations and the values founded by the two charters cistercians written by Saint Etienne. I make the oath in front of Christos and on the Holy-Writings always to serve in priority the Roman pope, the abbot of the Saint Arnvald in Noirlac cistercian abbey and their official representatives. Consequently I recognize like subordinates with the present oath my other allegiances, homages and obligations. And I make the oath in front of Saint Arnvald and on the Holy-Writings to respect this oath untill my death (monk) or untill the day when I would be lifted from my duties(oblat). "

V. Organization of an abbey

• 1. The abbot is a priest and constitutes the higher authority of an abbey (mother or daughter). He governs the chapter of the concerned abbey.

• 2. The prior is also a priest and second to the abbot, of which it is the associated, and can replace it in all, where necessary. He is copresident of the chapter of the concerned abbey.

L’Ordre Cistercien étant un Ordre Romain Reconnu de longue date, nos abbayes-filles n'ont aucune formalité particulière à remplir auprès de votre congrégation romaine pour exister à mon avis. Lorsque j'ai rédigé en salle du droit canon les chapitres sur le clergé régulier, je me souviens d'avoir stipulé en l’article 3.5.1.3 "Labellisation d'un bâtiment" du livre 3 sur le clergé régulier que "Nous visons ici tous les bâtiments dédiés à un usage monastique réguliers tels abbayes, monastères, prieurés et couvents qui ne sont pas directement rattaché à un Ordre Romain Reconnu, qui eux sont exempt de cette procédure." Ceci dit, le droit canon a peut être changé depuis notre rédaction mais s'il est resté dans stable comme nous le pensons, nous savons la lettre et l'esprit du texte vu que nous en sommes le principal rédacteur ! Ceci dit s'il s'agit de simplement s'enregistrer auprès de votre congrégation, la démarche est tout autre ...

[b] The Cistercian Order is an Order Romain long been recognized, our daughter abbeys have no particular formalities to be completed with your Roman congregation to exist in my opinion. When I wrote in the dining room of the canon law the chapters on the regular clergy, I remember having stipulated in Article 3.5.1.3 "Labelling of a building" Book 3 of the regular clergy that "Our goal here all buildings dedicated to such use regular monastic abbeys, monasteries, priories and convents that are not directly attached to a Roman order recognized that they are exempt from this procedure. "That said, the canon law may have changed since our writing, but it remained in stable as we think we know the letter and spirit of the text given that we are the principal drafter! That said if it is simply register with your congregation, the approach is quite different ... [/ b]

[B] L'Ordine cistercense è un Ordine Romain stata riconosciuta da tempo, le nostre abbazie figlia non hanno particolari formalità da completare con la vostra Congregazione romana di esistere a mio parere. Quando ho scritto nella sala da pranzo del diritto canonico i capitoli del clero regolare, ricordo di aver previsto dall'articolo 3.5.1.3 "Etichettatura di un edificio" Libro 3 del clero regolare, che "Il nostro obiettivo qui tutti gli edifici dedicati a tali abbazie monastiche uso regolare, monasteri, priorati e conventi che non sono direttamente collegati ad un ordine romano riconoscere che essi sono esenti da tale procedura. "Detto questo, il diritto canonico può essere cambiato da quando la nostra scrittura, ma è rimasto stabile in quanto pensiamo di conoscere la lettera e lo spirito del testo, dato che siamo l'estensore principale! Detto questo, se si tratta semplicemente di registrare con la vostra Congregazione, l'approccio è molto diverso ... [/ B]

Non facciamo confusione, io voglio solo sapere quali sono le vostre abbazie figlie.
I miei predecessori non hanno mai registrato queste cose cosi' importanti.
Inoltre, come ho fatto per l'abbazia figlia di San Tommaso, vorrei essere avvisato e formalizzare con un annuncio l'avvenuta nomina.
Purtroppo è sempre venuto meno il dialogo con Roma tra Cancellieri della Congregazione e i capitoli regolari degli ordini religiosi.
Vi voglio solo ricordare questo articolo:

L'accréditation de la Congrégation de Diffusion de la Foi est requise pour faire reconnaitre un ordre, fonder une abbaye ou tout autre bâtiment assimilé ou être intronisé à certaines fonctions spécifiques. Ceci est ea de la compétence du chapitre régulier romain, dépendant de la dite-congrégation.

Infatti quando vi è una nuova nomina come rettore degli ordini si deve sempre avvisarmi cosi' che possa dare accesso al capitolo regolare romano e formalizzare la nomina.
Vi chiedo solamente questo piccolo sforzo, di comunicare maggiormente con me per ogni questione, poichè io sono sempre felice quando un fratello viene a bussare alla mia porta.


Do not let confusion, I just want to know what your daughters abbeys. My predecessors have never recorded these things so important. Moreover, as I did for the Abbey of St. Thomas's daughter, I would like to be notified with an announcement and formalize the appointment has been made. Unfortunately it is always failed dialogue with Rome and the Congregation of Clerks Regular of the religious orders chapters. I just want you to remember this article:

In fact, when there is a new appointment as rector of the orders so you should always inform me that would give access to the regular Roman Empire Chapter and formalize the appointment. I ask only this small effort to communicate more with me for every question, because I'm always happy when a brother comes knocking at my door.
