Il v a quelques semaines, le Perc Jcan-Francois Gaziello, Assis- tant pour les Missions, m'a dernande d'etre decharge dc son office d'Assistant. A la session d'aujourd'hui, apres avoir entendu l'avis des rnembres du Conseil General et obtenu leur consentement, j'ai accepts sa dcmission. Le motif do la dcmission du Pere Gaziello, c'est son etat de sante. Fin 1987, lors de la visite d'unc mission, it a contracts une malaria cerebrale et it est reste quatre jours dans le coma. Son co0ur en a ete affects. Lors d'un recent examen medical, apres une visite Bans une Province missionnaire, les docteurs lui ont conseills de ne plus entreprendre de longs et penibles voyages. A la lumiere do ces faits, j'ai decide, sur sa dernande, de Ic decharger de son office. La Congregation doit de la reconnaissance au Pere Gaziello polo- son excellent travail durant huit ans et demi. Il a ete tres assidu a visiter les missions et it s'est applique tics activement a les promouvoir. Ses contributions lors des Conseils ont ete un sti- mulant pour noun tous . Je Iui suis profondemcnt reconnaissant de I'aide qu'il m'a personnellement donnee. Je sais que vous vous unircz a nous pour demander au Seigneur de lui rendre ses forces, afin qu'il puisse continuer a travailler pour la Congregation, dins la Province de Toulouse, a laquelle it retourne. Que Notre-Dame, "Salus Infirmorum", lui accorde la pro- tection de son intercession touts-puissante! Dans I'amour de Notre-Seigneur je demeure votre devour confrere Richard McCULLEN, is. C.M. -4- Rorna, Lent 1989 To the Congregation My dear Confreres, May the grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ bi with us forevar! A few weeks ago in my Advent letter I wrote to you on the topic of our Vow of Poverty. Since that time the members of the General Council have devoted a number of sessions to reflecting on the sub- ject. We would like now to offer you the fruits of our reflection, along with some questions which should be faced and honestly answered by each one of us. We consider that the maintenance and practice of evangelical poverty in the Congregation is essential for our survival as a Com- munity in the Church, a conviction which Saint Vincent expressed frequently to us at the end of his life. During the weeks of Lent I ask each local community in the Con- gregation to hold at least one conference on the subject of evangeli- cal poverty as practised by us as individuals and as communities. Later, at your next Provincial Assembly consideration and reflec- tion can be given to the questions of evangelical poverty at a provin- cial level. The short document which the General Council now offers you will, / hope, be a help in your personal, community and provincial reflection on our practice of evangelical poverty. May the Spirit of God enlighten us about the means we should adopt to strengthen, or if need be, restore the dynamism that the practice of evangelical poverty gives to the life of a man who is intent on continuing the mission of Christ of proclaiming good news to the poor. Asking a remembrance in your prayers, I remain in the love of Our Lord, Your devoted confrere, Richard McCULLEN, i.s. C.M. -5- SOME REFLECTIONS ON EVANGELICAL POVERTY IN THE CONGREGATION 1. SOMF. FACTS In a civilization and a world marked by a prodigious movement of' almost indefinite material growth, what witness would he offered by a religious who let himself be carried away by an uncurbed seek- ing for his own case, and who considered it normal to allow himself without discernment or restraint everything that is offered him? (Evangelica Testificatio, 19).
