VOCATION

Thousands of men and women are called to explore their vocation — by taking the first steps, you honor their call by seeing if religious vocation may be right for you.

A Brother is a member of a community of men committed to living and working together for the educational service of the young and the poor. A Brother is a man who has answered God’s call to give himself completely to Jesus Christ through the mission of education, especially to the poor and needy. Daily meditation, community prayer, liturgy, and the life-giving support of religious community enable the Brothers to infuse the world of education and the young with the Gospel.

YOU'RE FEELING CALLED. WE CAN HELP YOU FIND THE ANSWER

Each of us is called to live this life in service to God and others. You’re here because you hear. There is something in your life saying this may be a fit for you.
