Abstract
SILVA HERRERA, Rocío. Regulations of the confraternity of christian doctrine (1683). Estud. hist. novohisp [online]. 2020, n.63, pp.129-156. Epub Jan 21, 2021. ISSN 2448-6922. https://doi.org/10.22201/iih.24486922e.2020.63.75701.
This document contains the Tridentine, urban, and inclusive pastoral model promoted by priests of the Congregation of Saint Philip Neri, through the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, whose members promised to be instructors of the Catholic faith according to their ecclesial status: lay, cleric or religious. Since the Congregation was a priestly fraternity, the Confraternity was not linked to a parish or doctrine; its activities were an extension of diocesan ministry in various areas of Mexico City, under the inspiration of the episcopate of New Spain and in the spirit of the Congregation of St. Philip Neri. The content of the rules of 1683 contributed to the project of Archbishop Francisco de Aguiar y Seijas to strengthen and order the confraternities within his jurisdiction.
