Other Marist Voices 75 and 76: Making decisions / at the Service of the Mission

This week, we published messages 75 and 76 of “Other Marist Voices”. This is an initiative of the Marist International Mission Commission, which promotes a series of publications related to the development of servant and prophetic leadership in the Marist mission. This is an extended project of the “Marist Voices”.

Other Marist Voices 75 was written by Br. Greg McDonald, Provincial Councillor of the Province of Star of the Sea – Timor-Leste. The message titled “Prophetic Leadership at the Service of the Mission” (English | Español | Français | Português – Video) refers to chapter 11 of Marist Voices (Leadership Committed to Prioritising People: Growing Together, Accompanying and Empowering Each Other), written by Br. Gabriel Villa-Real and Br. Pere Ferré.
Other Marist Voices 76 was written by Monica Trujillo, Communications Manager of Arco Norte Region, from the Province of México Occidental. The message titled “Making decisions as a Marist laywoman, exercising servant and prophetic leadership” (English | Español | Français | Português – Video) refers to chapter 13 of Marist Voices (Communication Skills in Servant and Prophetic Leadership), written by Br. Cyprian Gandeebo.

Other Marist Voices

This project is promoted by the Marist International Mission Commission and gives continuity to the initiative “Marist Voices”, a book launched in 2022 that addresses the theme of Marist leadership and seeks to reflect on the request of the last General Chapter that underlined that “For a new beginning, we believe in governance that favours prophetic servant leadership and closely accompanies Marist life and mission.”

120 Marists from around the world, including brothers, lay men and women, have been invited to share their perspectives on leadership from their own experiences. Each brings a unique vision and reflects on specific aspects of servant and prophetic leadership. Each week two messages are posted on the Institute’s communication channels.
