 +    * for the honor of __God,__  
 +    * the building up of the __community__ and

-———“Practical Guidelines for Aging Religious Institutes.” In Canon Law Society Proceedings22060WashingtonD.C: Canon Law Society of America2015.+Romans 8:2 ... //through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.//

 +       * Particular insight into Gospel Living 
 +       * Experience of God, Community and Mission

 +     * Lives the Charism in a particular time and place 
 +     * Discovers Charism's meaning in that time and place 
 +     * Inspired by Founding Charism, answers new questions 
 +  * Experience of God, Community and Mission (Community, Spirituality and Justice) 
 +===Office & Charism===

 +     * Spirituality 
 +     * Mission

 +     * Constitution - Law 
 +   * Spiritual experience of founding generation: 
 +     * Experience of GodCommunity and Mission 
 +     * Expansion as people join 
 +     * Ecclesiastical recognition 
 +===Office & Charism=== 
 +  * Both the hierarchical structure of the Church and institutes of consecrated life possess these two essential constituents. 
 +  * //Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit.... strive for the greater gifts.// 1 Cor 12 
 +  * //Discernment of spirits.// 1 Cor 12 
 +  * //Test everything; hold fast to what is good … do not despise the gift of prophecy.// 1 Thess 5

 +     * office coordinate these gifts 
 +  * Ongoing challenge 
 +     * balance enables a flourishing of the Christian community 
 +     * if charismatic gifts flow a little too freely, the community may suffer from a modicum of unruliness. 
 +     * if officials control charism a little too strictly, within narrowly defined structures, may stifle the gift.  
 +     * Apex of office between the First and Second Vatican Councils 
 +===Lumen Gentium=== 
 +==Chapter 2== 
 +  * The Second Vatican Council sought to restore the balance. 
 +  * Office and Charism constitute the Church, are gifts of the Spirit. 
 +  * The holy people of God shares also in Christ's prophetic office. 
 +  * God distributes special graces among the faithful of every rank.  
 +    * makes them fit and ready to undertake the various tasks and offices 
 +    * for the renewal and building up of the Church.   
 +  * Judgment as to their genuinity and proper use belongs to those who are appointed leaders in the Church, to whose special competence it belongs,  
 +    * not indeed to extinguish the Spirit, but  
 +    * to test all things and hold fast to that which is good. 
 +==Chapter 5== 
 +  * The counsels are a divine gift 
 +  * Church authority has the duty, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, of interpreting these evangelical counsels, of regulating their practice and finally to build on them stable forms of living. (no citation) 
 +    * e.g by erection of an institute and the acceptance of its constitutions 
 +  * The hierarchy, following with docility the prompting of the Holy Spirit, accepts the rules presented by outstanding men and women and authentically approves these rules after further adjustments. 
 +– Do not quench the SpiritDo not treat prophecies with contempt but test them all; hold on to what is good. 1 Thess 
 +===1983 Code=== 
 +**… test … but do not quench....**

 +  * Canon 605: //The approval of new forms of consecrated life is reserved only to the Apostolic See. // 
 +===Perfectae Caritatis== 
 +  * #19 When the question of founding new religious communities arises, their __necessity__ or at least the many __useful services__ they promise must be seriously weighed.... 
 +  * Those areas where churches have recently established... which take into account the genius and way of life of the inhabitants and the customs and conditions of the regions.... 
 +  * Sufficient resources for their ongoing life....
