Brothers of Christian Instruction, USA

Brothers of Christian Instruction, USA Fr. Gabriel Deshayes & Fr. John Mary De La Mennais founded the Brothers of Christian Instruction on June 1819.

The Brothers live a simple life in a fraternal Community where they share in joy who they are, what they do and what they have. Everyday, where possible they meet and participate in the Eucharistic Sacrifice. Two times a day they meet and pray together in a fraternal community: in the morning - the divine office and meditation; in the evening for adoration and for Vespers. The Brothers were founde

d to make Jesus Christ better known through Christian education and instruction to the youthe. Today the Brothers are found in France, England, Italy, Spain, USA, Canada, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Bolivia, Mexico, Tahiti, Haiti, Indonesia, Japan, Philippines, French Polynesia, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Congo (DRC), Senegal, Ivory Coast, Togo, Benin, and recently in South Sudan.
