Tomaž Mavrič, C.M. Superior General recommends the use of the online version of our catalog.
My dear confreres,
On 21 November 2013, my predecessor, Gregory Gay, wrote to all members of the CM announcing the launch of the Online Catalog of the entire Congregation and provided instructions for its use.
Today, after four years, I realize that some confreres do not even know of the existence of this Catalog and that those who use it are less numerous than we would have hoped. Therefore, I am now encouraging you to learn about and use this powerful tool that is designed for all of us. Our Secretary General wants to keep this Catalog up-to-date in real time. This, of course, depends on information that comes from the provinces.
To use the Catalog, go to the cmdb.cmglobal.org page, enter your User ID, which corresponds to your last name, followed by the first letter of your first name (for example, mine is mavrict) and then the password (which each confrere will choose personally by modifying the original one).
In case you are having trouble or cannot remember your password, you can contact the Secretary General (secgen@cmglobal.org), who will assist you. One last thing. Because the data in this Catalog is meant to be up-to-date and accurate, please communicate promptly to the General Secretariat all information about changes in ministries, new appointments, orders, deaths, etc.
For this reason, I ask each Visitor to entrust a person (who may be the provincial secretary or even a layperson or another confrere in his province) with the delicate and important task of helping those confreres who need assistance to access and use the Catalog, as well as sending regular updates and information from the province to the General Secretariat. I thank everyone for his cooperation in the hope that we can all benefit from and be satisfied with this precious and useful tool.
Your brother in Saint Vincent,
Tomaž Mavrič, C.M. Superior General
