Communicatio in sacris - VI - Armenian Catholic priests

Pope Clement VI
(1342-1352).




An Armenian priest.

Pope Clement VI
gave a very general permission
to Armenian priests
who had returned to the Catholic Church
to administer the sacraments among the schismatics,
not in approval of their schism,
- this is stated -
but to lead them back to obedience to the true Church.
