Italian original Cite

CONGREGATION OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA OF THE SISTERS OF THE THIRD ORDER OF ST. DOMINIC IN SOUTH AFRICA. - Under this name is to be understood the union of 6 already existing Congregations of Dominican tertiaries, of which 5 are in the South African Union, with their respective mother houses at Capetown, King William's Town, Newcastle, Oakford, Port Elizabeth; the sixth with its mother house at Salisbury (Southern Rhodesia).

This union, promoted by Propaganda Fide, was approved by Pius XI (16 Nov. 1922), who wished it to be dependent on that same dicastery, although the C. was not properly to be considered of pontifical right. The first constitutions, examined by Propaganda, were introduced by the apostolic delegate, then re-examined and approved ad septennium by decree of 20 Nov. 1926. Subsequently the various original nuclei resumed their autonomy, and at present all of them depend on the S. Congregation of Religious, and only the C. of Salisbury on Propaganda.
