Finance Commission

Global Plan of the General Council 2019-2025

God has called us to be good administrators of the gifts we have received. We have the task of taking good care of what has been entrusted to us. We strive to be better in our responsibility, transparency and solidarity in the adminis­tration of the material goods entrusted to us. Thus, we con­tinue to implement the ideal established by our Constitu­tions: “In our use of material goods, it is our responsibility before God to observe faithfully the poverty which we have freely professed, keeping in mind that we make the vow of poverty in order to live a simple life, individually and within our communities, avoiding whatever might offend the sensibilities of the poor” (Con. 60). “To ensure that the economic structure of our religious life does not resemble existing global systems of unjust inequality, fraternity with­in the Carmelite family should find expression in concern for and sharing with communities throughout the Order, in particular the poorer among them”(Con. 38).

Christian Körner, O. Carm.
