Pope Decides to Ban the Sodalitium of Christian Life and Entrusts Its Execution to a Controversial Priest

Among the most immediate challenges for the dissolution is the destiny of the assets and the future of the members. The Sodalitium of Christian Life (SCL)) was made up of consecrated laymen who took vows and lived in community, also with priests (some 35 of the 120 members with perpetual vows). A possibility would be that of a refoundation. There is also a women’s branch. It’s not known at present if the ban applies also to them.
