Perspectives on spirituality
?Marist Family. Perspectives on Spirituality?, that is the name of the new site of the Marist branches that has just been born on the 14th December 2006 in four languages. It is hoped that it becomes a site where we can communicate and exchange our respective ways of understanding Marist spirituality.
The project was conceived during meetings of the Marist General Councils in Rome. To this effect, each Council chose one person to be responsible for it. From these meetings of the Marist General Councils, we have already had the publication of a book entitled ?As Mary?, bilingual edition and in three languages, which gathers together the ten most important texts of each of the branches on the spirituality of the Marist family. Father J.B.Jolly introduces it in an article that you can read in the Marist site of France
For the General Council of the Marist Brothers, it is Brother Théoneste Kalisa who is the member of this committee.
To have access to this site and to be able to contact the members of the Marist branches, the site will be animated from now on by four persons. It will be enriched by articles coming from lay Marists, Marist Missionary Sisters, Marist Sisters, Marist Fathers and Marist Brothers. The first published theme is entitled ?Called to be Marist, what does this mean for me?? The next, for the month of June will have as its title, ?Marists making a difference in the Church and the world.? Every semester, there will be a new theme.
We rejoice in this new window that has opened so that the Marist work of the four branches can be better known in the world and we wish it a long life.
