“We will use temporal goods to benefit the people of God, especially the poor and needy.” (Con. 24)
Fr. Jan Tyminski, 1971, Poland
“The profession of poverty for the sake of following Christ implies a life of labor and moderation and, by the force of the vow, a complete dependence on our Superiors in the use and disposition of goods as well as renouncing of at least the administration of our own patrimony.” (Provincial Statutes, 20)
