Superior from 1970 - 1980
In the XI general chapter (1969-70) Don Olimpio Giampedraglia was elected, reconfirmed in the following one (1976). He died in office in 1980. His commitment was the implementation of the conciliar requests and the chapter decisions, above all of the special general chapter (1969-70). We owe him the promulgation of new texts of Constitutions and regulations, the establishment of religious provinces, the transfer of the general house and the theological studentate to Rome, the specialization of the confreres and works and the start of new activities (Palencia, in Spain; Nazareth, in Palestine).
