"A Brother
is a man committed to living the consecrated life in response to
a call from God. Brothers are engaged in a variety of ministries
in keeping with the charism of their Congregation and model the
person of Jesus through the relational manner in which they serve."
(Religious Brothers Conference 2003) |
