The Renewal of the Order redone 2018
The Renewal of the Marian Order in 1909-1910 88 Appendix 1: Letter of the Vicar General of the Warsaw Archdiocese K. Ruszkiewicz to Pius X, recommending the Marians Warsaw, January 15, 1910 Holy Father, I herewith recommend the Congregation of Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception of the Most Holy Virgin Mary which has been abolished by State law and has almost completely ceased to exist. Currently, however, it is at beginning of its Renewal. There is no shortage of candidates who wish to undertake religious life, while at the same time male religious congregations are very much desirable in our parts. I hope that the Congregation of Marian Fathers will soon grow and contribute a lot of good to our Mother the Church as well as to the faithful. This can be expected even more since the Marian Fathers wish to base their constitutions and to organize the entire life of the Order upon the Standards issued by the Congregation for the Religious. I also ardently support the still surviving Superior General of the Congregation of the Marian Fathers, Wincenty Sekowski, candidate of Theology, as well as priests Jerzy Matulewicz and Franciszek Buczys, Doctors of Theology and Professors of the Theological Academy in St. Petersburg whom, in accordance with the Response of the Holy Congregation for the Religious, 1 I enrolled into the Congregation of the Marian Fathers 2 by reason of their immaculate faith, piety of their lives, and eager care of souls. With due reverence and respect, a dedicated son of the Holy See, Kazimierz Ruszkiewicz Vicar General of the Warsaw Archdiocese LVA, set 1676, inv. 1, vol. 27, p. 15, copy, in Latin. 1 See Document 18. 2 See Document 22.
