Statutes of Authier's congregation in Valence [1647]
Christophe Authier
The statutes of Christophe Authier's congregation in Valence, in two versions (as emended by PF, and as submitted initially). The name of the congregation in the amended version is "Congregatio Sanctissimi sacramenti ad Missiones et Seminariorum directionem"; in the initial version (on f. 171r-173v) it is "Congregatio Sacerdotum Cleri."
Date discussed 1647-04-01 and 1647-06-17
Additional comments
A second set of statutes (identical content; only PF notes differ) is in PF SOCG 199, f. 450r-457v (not in this database). They were discussed in PF general meetings of June and September 1647; it looks like that set was sent to Cardinal Brancatio for review, after all the other cardinals had already seen it (according to PF note on f. 454v).

Collation of documents related to CEC, done by notary Delatie on 26 September 1634 for PF. The collation includes: a) a notarized confirmation by Jean-François de Gondi, archbishop of Paris, who is to be superior, president, and moderator of the said congregation, given in Paris, 6 May 1634 (f. 71-72v); and b) the constitutions and statutes of the CEC (f. 72v-77v), including nine chapters on the aims of the congregation, its internal organization, and the election of officials; the original had been signed by the archbishop of Paris.
Additional comments
The documents mention that the CEC was instituted on 14 September 1632 at the initiative of "Pater Frater Hyacinthus Presbyterus predicator ordinis Fratrum Capucinorum Sancti Francisci," who had converted many heretics in Paris (congregation formed by Hyacinth "et alii’"-names not mentioned in this doc.), under the name "Congregatio Exaltationis Sanctae Crucis."
