Our Life
WE LIVE A CONSECRATED LIFE. WE SERVE IN EDUCATION. WE LIVE IN COMMUNITY. Brothers serve the Church through a specific ministry such as educating people. Brothers profess vows of Obedience, Chastity, Poverty, Association and Stability. Brothers call themselves "Brothers" to describe the type of relationship we have with people: brothers among ourselves, brothers to the adults we deal with, and older brothers to the young people confided to our care.
Our Mission
TO GIVE A HUMAN AND CHRISTIAN EDUCATION TO THE YOUNG, ESPECIALLY THE POOR.
