While building on a comprehensive reading of available archival sources in the Menzingen Religious Institute, this work provides a greater understanding of the possibilities and the difficulties of a return \textit{ad fontes} in the Church and in religious life. It discloses that a struggle for a founding inspiration is a struggle for the memory. The theoretical framework which has been constructed from scriptural sources in this study, is likely to be of use in a theological interpretation of any Christian founding event.

The Passionists (Latin: Congregatio Passionis Iesu Christi) are a Roman Catholic religious institute founded by Saint Paul of the Cross with a special emphasis on the Passion of Jesus Christ. Professed members use the initials C.P. after their names. A known symbol of the congregation is the labeled emblem of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, surmounted by a cross and is often sewn into the clothing attire of its congregants. Traditionally, their main apostolate has been preaching missions and retreats. According to Saint Paul of the Cross, they were founded in order to "teach people how to pray", which they do through activities such as retreats and missions, spiritual direction, and prayer groups.
