Congregación Mariana
In 1587, following a request from the Society of Jesus, Pope Sixtus V issued the Papal bull "Superna Dispositione", which gave the Superior General of the Society of Jesus the right to create aggregates of the first Congregation within other localities, even among persons who were not enrolled in a Jesuit school or University. As a result of this document, lay Congregations, such as the Ignatian Christian Life Community (since 1967), and "Marianische Frauencongregation" or "Ladies' Sodality of Our Lady" in Germany, derive their beginnings.
