De la salle Christian brothers
The opening day of the Year of Consecrated Life, November 21, 2014, was of special significance to the Brothers of the Christian Schools. Auxiliary Visitor Brother Charles Kitson, FSC, describes "The Heroic Vow and Consecrated Life" in a recent newsletter published by the Brothers' District of Eastern North America. The article appeared exactly 323 years after John Baptist de La Salle had joined with his principal brothers to "remain in a life-long association for the running of the Christian Schools no matter what." Check out Brother Charles' article and a video about this "heroic vow" here.
