Mass Stipends

The brothers must give the Mass stipends they have received to the major sacristan, who will record them accurately in a special book, indicating when they were received, their number, the intentions and conditions, the amounts offered, and the dates on which the Masses were celebrated.

The major sacristan must keep Mass stipends in a separate account. Only when the Masses have been celebrated may the money be transferred to the common account. Every month the sacristan must present a report to the conventual council on the Masses celebrated and to be celebrated.

Stipends for Masses which cannot be celebrated in due time by the fathers of a convent must be sent to the prior provincial, and a surplus in the province must be sent to the Master of the Order.
