Chapter of Consultors
The Chapter of Consultors is the advisory council of the Society of Mercy. There are two levels of members: full members and honorary. Members with full membership are clergy whose leadership, spirituality and dedication have been extraordinary. They are elected at the General Chapter by the members of the Society. Honorary members are those persons outside the Society who deserve special distinction as having served the Society and the Superior General faithfully in an important capacity.
Full members are entitled to purple piping and a purple tuft on their biretta. They also may be addressed as Very Reverend and use the title of Canon. These privileges are lost upon exiting the Chapter.
